I'm just a newby to Emily's List. So I don't know if this group advocates any support for ALS research or have voted in favor of the registry -- but with our military at risk to this disease and my husband and his family among the rare 5 percent who inherit this disease -- Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is heavy on our ...shoulders and always in our thoughts. More and more people list friends and loved ones who have been taken by this disease that has NO CURE, NO TREATMENT and very little motivation to fund research. Yet, if a cure or treatment is found for ALS, then it will help find a cure for Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Muscular Dystrophy, and other neuromuscular diseases.

The strange part about ALS -- it strikes healthy people, active, athletic men and women and yes even children, from every walk of life in every location around the world.

EMILY's List thinks it's up to the President and the Congress to make certain that women do not lose their benefits or rights as a result of health care reform.

The assault on women's reproductive rights continues with a vengeance. As Congress struggled to pass health care reform to improve the lives of America's families, anti-choice forces took advantage of the situation to mount yet another assault on abortion.

Bart Stupak ( D-MI) lost a son to suicide but apparently has no qualms having the parents of daughters suffer a similar loss. By imposing his religious beliefs on a LEGAL procedure his amendment will profoundly affect poor young women the most!
Will he be there to grieve with them?
STRIP THIS AMENDMENT FROM FINAL PASSAGE!

Your Damn Right Health Insurance Reform Matters To This Women! and many others as well. I think too many Americans are just down right self absorbed and don't think. Life is too precious,it's here today and gone tomorrow we better pull together support what's right for the people as a whole and make this country great again.

Women and children are the worlds poorest peoople. That is why health reform is so important. Women who work are the poorest workers. Health insurance for them is out of the question. In the Scandinavian countries women have a larger represntation in government. These countries have a good health care system, maternity leave, free education through to university, and they have a self sufficient clean energy system. It does help to have women in positions of pwer.

I honestly don't know what to say about reports that a Republican challenger to EMILY's List alum Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz actually shot at a picture meant to represent the congresswoman when he and his pals from the local Republican club got together at a shooting range.

Love Pelosi. And can we tell Harry Reid to keep his mits off her? The day he puts his arm around Gore and says that all Dems will be good little war puppets is the day he can do that to Pelosi. I guess we have to make allowances that he is from cousin-marrying territory.

Go Nancy! I wrote to her, and she wrote back. She even told me happy birthday on the letter. People say she's a nut and doesn't belong in the world, but deep down she's a kind-hearted woman and actually cares about change.
