To everyone who called their members of Congress, who marched in the streets, who spoke out at a town hall — thank you. Together we defeated Trumpcare, the worst bill for women’s health in a generation. Today’s victory is a powerful reminder that, together, our voices have the power change the world.
Yep, they did it — the Senate’s secret bill isn’t so secret anymore. And it “defunds” Planned Parenthood and takes away coverage from millions. We can stop this dangerous bill before it becomes law. But we need your voice. Contact your senator now.
The health care repeal bill is moving in the Senate. Thirteen men are writing this bill behind closed doors. Trumpcare would gut maternity coverage, “defund” Planned Parenthood, and take away health care from millions. Defunding Planned Parenthood would cause a national health disaster — and the people who would be hurt most would be those struggling to get by.
We’ll be on the ground at rallies and events across the country – loud, proud, and in lawmakers’ faces. Find an event near you today. We need a massive show of strength at local offices to demonstrate just how much opposition there is to “defunding” Planned Parenthood and taking away people’s health care – whether you think your senators are with us or not.
1 light + 1 piece of plastic wrap + 1 red marker = a simple pink light for the world to see.
Show your community you stand with PP by pinking out your house lights at night. Pink holiday lights, pink tissue paper, pink flashlights – get creative!
You can also make a quick pink light by visiting ppaction.org/pink on your phone and holding it up at a rally or with friends in your neighborhood!
3. PinkOut the Internet
We’ve got to show the Senate we’re a force to be reckoned with.
or just take a photo and post it to social media on June 21st.
Put pink lights on your door, pink signs in your window, pink buttons on your bag! Wear a pink outfit. Pink nails. Pink lips. Pink hair!
Then post it all to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, you name it – be sure to use the hashtag #IStandWithPP, and tag your Senators (more on that below).
4. Call Your Senators (again)
They. Have. To. Hear. From. Us. Even if you’ve done it before – do it again.
Honestly, set a daily reminder on your phone and call every day in June. Ten calls from one person are just as useful as calls from ten different people.

We’re still fighting to keep Planned Parenthood health center doors open for 2.4 million patients. And we need you now more than ever!
We need you. Even if it feels like you’ve already done this. Even if it feels like you’ve told your story a million times. Even if you’ve already called your senator. Now is the time to step up and double down.
And no matter If you’re doing it for the first time or the millionth time, thank you. We couldn’t do it without you.
Recently, the Guttmacher Institute released a new report showing that Planned Parenthood served more contraceptive clients than any other publicly funded provider in 2015, confirming that Planned Parenthood remains a critical resource for family planning care across the country.
The House just voted to strip health care from millions of people and block patients from Planned Parenthood health centers. We can still stop this disastrous bill before it becomes law.
