Received this e-mail today from Senator Kay Hagan (D. NC) regarding the North Carolina GOP controlled legislature's War On Women:
Less than 24 hours.
That’s how long it took the North Carolina Senate to sneak sweeping anti-women’s health measures into a totally unrelated bill and then force a vote on it.
The legislation will limit access to preventive care and health services, and it does nothing to improve patient safety.
The only way to stop the bill now is to tell North Carolina lawmakers to protect women. The legislation is moving quickly so we need to act right now. Let’s show them their deceitful attacks on women’s health won’t stand.
Click here now—before it’s too late—and tell North Carolina lawmakers to stand up for women and stop these attacks on women’s health:

This legislation is shameful, there’s just no other way to say it. If this bill is introduced in the House it will almost surely pass, doing nothing to improve patient safety while drastically infringing on North Carolina women’s right to choose and access to preventive care.
Join me in demanding that North Carolina lawmakers do the right thing, and stop this war on women.
Thanks for standing with me, as well as with women and families all across North Carolina.
Kay

I will be having a diary out soon about why the 2014 North Carolina U.S. Senate Race is going to be a big and important race next year very soon.
