As we see Trump administration figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. attack healthcare in this country, Secretary Sebelius offers a powerful perspective on the consequences threatening all Americans.

Just this week, the Trump administration has frozen nearly $30 million in funding for Title X – the nation’s family planning program. Title X has enabled millions of Americans to access birth control, cancer screenings, and sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing and treatment since 1970. Then Congressman George H. W. Bush sponsored the bill that created the program, and President Richard Nixon signed it into law.

This latest attempt to eliminate access to family planning is a continuation of decades-long attacks on Title X by reproductive rights opponents. More than ever, it is critical to understand these threats and how to counter them to protect women and girls across America.

We hope you’ll join us to hear from Secretary Sebelius on May 7th and why she believes in Project 50’s strategy to fight for reproductive rights at the state level. You can RSVP online HERE or directly to Erin Schuler, at info@project50.net. Tickets start at $250. Get yours today!

We look forward to seeing you there!

Project 50, Executive Director
