WHY:
Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser states, "Tens of thousands of pro-lifers across America have already contacted their legislators to urge the preservation of our long- standing tradition of limiting taxpayer funds for abortion, but now is the time to turn up the heat. Without language to explicitly exclude an abortion mandate, the legislation will result in Americans footing the bill for abortion on-demand in the largest expansion of government-backed abortion since Roe v. Wade." 

INFO: 
This teletownhall event will challenge myths about health care reform and mobilize pro-life activists nationwide. By dialing in, reporters, producers, hosts and bloggers will gain access to news and views from some of the nation's leading pro-life advocates. 

A recording of the teletownhall will be made available on Friday, August 21, 2009.
