Dear Barrett,

On May 4, the Republican Tea Party Congress passed H.R. 3, which would coerce private insurance into ending coverage for abortion and turn IRS agents into abortion cops.

AT&T and Verizon Wireless contributed $386,000 and $35,500 respectively to members of the House Tea Party Caucus in the 2010 elections, including Tea Party leader Michelle Bachmann. Isn't it time for you to switch to a progressive phone company?

IS YOUR PHONE COMPANY FUNDING CONGRESS'S WAR ON WOMEN?

Right-wing radicals in Congress continue to wage war against women with the recent passage of H.R. 3 in the House. This outrageous bill would significantly restrict women's access to abortion services and even "redefine rape." Did your phone company fund politicians who cosponsored this bill?

AT&T and Verizon Wireless both contributed to House Tea Party Caucus founder Rep. Michele Bachmann, who cosponsored H.R. 3 and stated she was "proud" to vote for this bill. And AT&T contributed to the 2010 campaign of Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey, who introduced and sponsored this outrageous anti-choice legislation.

You don't have to give your money to companies that fund far-right politicians. You have a choice, and that choice matters.
