Join local Hartford organizers on Saturday, January 23rd at Charter Oak Cultural Center, 21 Charter Oak Ave in Hartford at 2pm for a public discussion about Reproductive Freedom. Read the full story

A woman’s right to choose is under attack. Right wing opponents of health care reform are trying to turn a woman’s most basic medical right into a weapon against improved access to care for all.  The administration continues to try to appeal to them by supporting so-called “conscience clauses” that will make abortion less accessible than ever! The murder of Dr. George Tiller may result in even fewer doctors braving  the threats to provide abortion services.  It is time to fight back!  We need to make OUR voices heard.
