Victory!

I know this news is extremely belated (like over a week belated), but Congress included the Shaheen Amendment in the final National Defense Authorization Act. The amendment secures military women access to safe and legal abortion. I got the email about this from Planned Parenthood days before Christmas. Thought you all would like to know, especially if you haven't heard about it yet.
