Hollywood Feminist of the Day: Amy Poehler

Amy Poehler pens a letter in support of Planned Parenthood. Here’s some of it:

You know who is awesome? Cecile Richards. She’s the president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. She’s smart, she’s tough, and she’s totally dedicated to fighting for women’s health. And you know who else totally rules? Every single doctor and nurse and receptionist and volunteer who shows up at a Planned Parenthood health center to make sure that every person who walks through their door gets the care they need.

Full piece here.

States are threatening to defund Planned Parenthood (it’s on the block now in Texas) which offer services far beyond abortions. If you want Amy to call you awesome, get involved.
