Dear Friend,

I know this is a busy time of the year, but this matter is too important for women across the nation.

I'm writing to remind you that there are just 5 days left for you to make your 2012 tax-deductible gift to the NOW Foundation.

Radical right-wing leaders in the incoming Congress are bent on eliminating reproductive freedom and other women’s rights.

Your support is vital to strengthening the NOW Foundation's efforts to raise awareness and activate our network against the extreme right's anti-woman agenda. In the year ahead, we need to continue:

• Fighting against oppressive state laws that render Roe v. Wade meaningless for millions of women
• Mobilizing to ensure that all women have coverage for the full range of reproductive health services, including abortion and birth control
• Thwarting the advances of anti-choice lawmakers in Congress to deny women access to life-saving emergency abortions at public hospitals

Please give as much as you can afford today — women across the nation are counting on your support to protect their rights and quality of their lives.

Thanks for all that you do.

Sincerely, Terry O'Neill, President National Organization for Women
