Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio, as a part of the Freedom of Choice Ohio coalition, is proud to present Cristina Page as our guest speaker at the 2010 Roe Anniversary Event!

Please click here to RSVP for the January 27th dinner and lecture.

Cristina Page is author of How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America: Freedom, Politics and the War on Sex and spokesperson for birthcontrolwatch.org. Page also is a consultant for several national pro-choice groups and her policy proposals have been adopted by NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the Washington State legislature, and the New Jersey State legislature. Her op-eds have appeared in The New York Times, Chicago Sun Times, Newsday, Guardian UK, Tampa Tribune and the Baltimore Sun.

Cristina Page excerpts from select columns published by RHRealityCheck.org:

"It may come as a shock to most pro-life Americans, but there's not one pro-life group in the United States that supports contraception."

"For those who would like to think today's murder in church of Dr. George Tiller, an abortion provider, is an isolated incident: here's the horrifying news: You are wrong. The pattern is clear and frightening."

"Nearly all of Obama's actions on reproductive rights to date have focused on preventing the need for abortion, one of his 'common ground' issues. And while he's won no fans in traditional pro-life groups, it's an approach the majority of pro-life Americans want."

"Many veteran leaders in the 'pro-life' movement are immovably stuck in their positions. They appear deeply invested in rehashing the same, seemingly eternal arguments, in continuing what even to a staunch pro-choicer like myself seems like a tedious fight."

1. Planned Parenthood PREVENTS more abortions than any other organization in the world!
It is estimated that one in four American women have been to a PP health center at least once in their lives. They go for reproductive health care and while there they get routine health care as well, e.g. blood pressure screening.

Support your local Planned Parenthood!
