Urge your Representative and Senators to stop funding ineffective abstinence-only programs and instead co-sponsor the Responsible Education abut Life Act.
In March 2007, Barbara Lee (D-CA) and Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) introduced the Responsible Education About Life Act—the REAL Act, H.R. 1653 and S. 972. This important bill would provide funding to states for medically accurate, age appropriate, comprehensive sex education in the schools—education that includes information about both abstinence and contraception, from both a values and public health perspective.
