This morning I was thinking about all the groups that support the Reproductive Health Bill. I searched online, but couldn’t find a complete list, so I quickly decided to compile one myself. At first I was going to make an info graphic but the text would have been too small as there are so many groups supporting the RH Bill. The organizations against it are so few, and they’re all religious groups. So ask yourself, who are you going to trust on a bill that is aims to provide health care to poverty-stricken women? Then call your congressmen, because you can be sure the Anti-RH groups are.
