Since the anti-reproductive rights movement is intent on banning not only abortion, but also birth control (as I documented today over at BlogHer), I thought it would be nice to highlight work being done to promote reproductive health and positive sexuality.

Two weeks ago, I wrote that legal abortion is a myth for many women in the United States. In 2005, 87 percent of all U.S. counties lacked an abortion provider; 35 percent of American women live in those areas.

Safe abortion is a class issue. The right to choose is meaningless if you can not get an abortion when and where you need one. In 2005, 87 percent of all U.S. counties lacked an abortion provider; 35 percent of American women live in those areas. Almost 25 percent of women requiring an abortion travel over 50 miles to obtain the procedure.
