Demand that women be brought to the table when discussing women’s health issues

No women?
Today, at a House Oversight Committee hearing, House Republicans convened a panel on denying access to birth control coverage with five men and no women. As Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney asked, where are the women?

Join me in our call to Speaker Boehner, Eric Cantor, Chairman Issa and all House Republicans to demand that women be brought to the table when discussing women’s health issues. Help us gather 50,000 signatures before Congress heads home tomorrow.SIGN THE PETITION: http://dccc.org/WhereAreTheWomen

• CORRECT! - Loss of sea ice habitat, which makes it harder for bears to find enough food. Polar bears must hunt from sea ice for their food, primarily seals. As the ice disappears, bears are unable to hunt for the seals on which they depend.
