I just wrote to the Whitehouse re. Reproductive rights.
madfloridian's post got me fired up.

I'd encourage others to write. http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
And read madf's post. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=6536537&mesg_id=6536537


Dear Mr. President,

As one of the people who enthusiastically voted for you, I am very upset about the continued bending to Right Wing, conservative, religious strictures on women's reproductive rights.

This is a demographic that has no concern for women as human beings.

I'd like to share a presently active thread on Democratic Underground that will give you an idea of the danger the Religious Right poses to women.

I hope you will place women's lives above the personal beliefs of an extreme, fundamentalist, theocratic demographic.

With utmost respect for you and your office,

------

2. Whitehouse is the senator from Rhode Island.
The White House is where the President of the United States resides.
