National Organization for Women May 17, 2012 08:25PM NOW to Rally Outside D.C. Radio Station Airing Rush Limbaugh Show http://now.org/press/05-12/05-17.html On Friday, May 18, NOW will hold a picket outside WMAL 630 AM, the Washington, D.C., radio station that carries Rush Limbaugh's show.

May 16, 2012 07:54PM NOW Condemns House for Passage of H.R. 4970 http://now.org/press/05-12/05-16.html NOW condemns today's passage of H.R. 4970, the House Republican version of the Violence Against Women Act reauthorization bill. Sponsored by Representative Sandy Adams (R-Fla.), H.R. 4970 not only strips important provisions that were passed by a bipartisan Senate vote of 68-31, but also changes and weakens many initiatives and preventive provisions that have been included in VAWA by both Republicans and Democrats over the past 18 years. May 16, 2012 02:38PM Stop D.C. 20-Week Abortion Ban http://action.now.org/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=6044 Radicals in the House are poised to host a hearing on a dangerous new abortion ban for D.C. H.R. 3803 and its Senate companion would ban abortion care at 20 weeks in Washington, D.C., imposing penalties and/or jail time on doctors who provide this necessary health care, even those stepping in to preserve a woman's health.
