{Political_Views} "Vagina"



Tell them to apologize!

 

Michigan's Republican House Speaker James Bolger and Majority Leader Jim Stamas are eager to regulate vaginas, so long as they don't have to hear about them.

Last week, they silenced Reps. Lisa Brown and Barb Byrum for wanting to speak out about women's reproductive health. 

For saying the word "vagina," Brown was barred from speaking on the House floor. Byrum was barred before she even got the chance to give a speech!

Join us in demanding that they apologize to Lisa Brown and Barb Byrum -- and allow them to speak again on the House floor. Click here to sign.

It is unacceptable that Republicans have used bullying tactics to shut down debate about important issues. It's happened in Wisconsin, Michigan, and around the country.

With your help, we can publicly shame Michigan's Republican leaders and make others think twice before silencing debate in the future.

We'll inform Michigan media about thousands of people demanding an apology -- and run online ads shaming Bolger and Stamas publicly.

Sign the petition demanding that Stamas and Bolger apologize! Then pass this to your friends.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
