House Reps. Speak Out Against PRENDA, Say Abortion Bill Based on Racial Stereotypes - NBC News

my article for NBC
"PRENDA doesn't just seek to take away a woman's right to an abortion, it peddles a dangerous and ugly stereotype that Asian-American, black, and Hispanic women are more likely to seek an abortion because of sex or race," Chu told NBC News. "Airing this kind of prejudice in a Congressional hearing gives it legitimacy. It also insultingly tells minority women that they cannot be trusted with making decisions for themselves."
