I am so excited to be in New Hampshire. Are you ready to make History Today . [applause] ms. Richards me too. Lets set the stage. Planned parenthood was started nearly 100 years ago to give women access to health care. Since then, women have made enormous progress. Let me tell you, we are just getting started, my friends. We are more than half the workforce, more than half the college students. We are in congress, on the supreme court. And with your help, we will be in the white house. [applause] ms. Richards i think it is really important. Women have made these gains because we have the right to ther and when we had children. It is fundamental. We are here to say we are not going back now. [applause] richards as you heard before, planned Parenthood Centers all across america see millions of patients every year, from every state, including New Hampshire. There is no more American Institution than planned parenthood. Derry, tomont to exeter and keene, women wrote to tell how they count on planned parenthood. Student who grad relies on planned parenthood to finish school and plan her career. Whow mother in tamworth goes for her annual checkups at planned parenthood because you know she will get excellent, highquality health care. A young woman in manchester with a Family History of cancer goes mind by her peace of going to planned parenthood for her annual exam. They are why we are here today. Staff and supporters come from every walk of life. That includes every political persuasion, right . Right . Am i right . Yes. Lets walk through our doors every day at planned parenthood not to make a political statement. They are coming because they give the best quality of care without judgment and without shame. [applause] his richards as one of our says,ts from keene planned parenthood provides care to allow our population to live free. Isnt that what New Hampshire is all about . Planned parenthood was created because decisions made by politicians, by state executive councils, by congress, impact the everyday lives of women and their families. , whent saw this last week the house of representatives voted one more time to eliminate millions of peoples ability to go to planned parenthood for preventative care. The only reason that bill will not go into effect . Itause barack obama vetoed the moment it hit his desk. [applause] that is why we need a friend in the white house. Thank you, president barack obama. [applause] richards. the stakes have never been higher for women and families. As you have heard, around the supporters told us what they want from the next president. They want a president who believes that health care is not a luxury. It is a human right. They also want a president who understands that being prochoice actually means being able to choose to have a child. Right . And a president who will fight for prenatal care and health care for kids and an excellent public education. Right . [applause] richards as someone famously said, it takes a village to raise a child. They want a president who will stand up to the gun lobby and demand safety for kids in schools and folks in church and women who are going to get health care, no matter what. [applause] ms. Richards they want a president that will demand that no one is paid less just because they are a woman. We deserve 100 cents on the dollar. [applause] richards folks around the Country Demand a president that will protect access to safe and legal abortion and is tough enough to stand up to anyone who will deny women the right to make their own health care decisions. This year, news is we had that candidate. To say not be prouder that today, the planned Parenthood Action Fund is proud to endorse Hillary Clinton to be the next president of the United States of america. [applause] ms. Richards as i think you all know, in this election, with the attacks on Womens Health and rights, more than ever before, we do not just need a friend we need a fighter. It was Hillary Clinton who first said to the world that womens rights are human rights and human rights are womens rights once and for all. Right . Here is the tough thing. There are some folks who do not believe in that. The real problem is that several of them are running for president of the United States of america. Personally, i hope i live to see womens Rights Health care is embraced by republicans and democrats and independents and understand it is an american value. [applause] but a lesson from the recent republican debates is that we have a lot of work to do. Every single leading republican candidate has committed to destroying the Progress Women have made. Legalll want to ban abortion, pledged to repeal the , whichble care act ensures Birth Control for 55 million women in america. Have sworn to block planned parenthood access for millions of patients in this country, including Cancer Screening and family planning. Frankly, the republicans have painted a vision for women, and it looks like the 1950s. My friends, we are not going backwards. [applause] mad men is great entertainment, but i do not want to live in that series. Hillary clinton has been fighting for women her entire life. Not just with words, but with action. As a young attorney working for the childrens offense defense fund, as first lady, healthg the childrens insurance program, which provides 8 million children in america access to health care. [applause] richards and as u. S. Senator, she introduced eight bills to expand access to health care, more than any senator in the United States. No candidate has done more than her for women, our rights, and economic security. She is the leader i trust in the white house to make sure women and families move forward. Putecretary of state, she Womens Health care at the top of the global agenda. Downed some of the toughest dictators around the globe. So i have no doubt she can stare down the gun lobby, the tea party, and anyone that will take away womens rights. Because she never wavers. [applause] ms. Richards these past eight years under president obama, women have made huge advancements. You, president obama, for being a champion for women every single day. [applause] we know ifs but donald trump or ted cruz has their way, we will be back in the stone age. This election is a showdown between those who want to build upon the incredible progress we have made, the promise of the future, and those who want to rip it away. We have worked really hard together to get where we are today. It is unthinkable that our granddaughters and our daughters could be facing a future where they have fewer rights than we do. Right . Mistake this election will determine whether roe versus wade continues to be the law of the land, whether women make their own childbearing decisions, and whether women can continue to seek care from planned parenthood. Our pledge, my pledge, hillarys pledge, is that planned parenthoods doors will stay open. That is why we are here today. That is why we are in New Hampshire. We are here to make history. The nextd gentlemen, president of the United States of america, secretary Hillary Clinton. [applause] [applause] ms. Clinton are you guys ready to win an election . [applause] ms. Clinton well, i sure am. I am ready with your help, and i am so honored to accept this endorsement of the planned Parenthood Action Fund. Just said, ile have stood with you throughout my life and certainly throughout my career. I promise you this as your president , i will always have your back. We will fight together. An energetic and emotional afternoon because you have heard so many great advocates, so many people on the front lines, fighting to preserve womens rights. I want to thank some of them. I want to thank kelly, a great mc. I want to thank dr. Donna natasha, a patient advocate who has been a patient. I want to thank hana from las vegas. I want to thank crystal from New Hampshire, who is also a patient and a volunteer for planned parenthood and my campaign. I appreciate both. [applause] ms. Clinton i also want to thank the members of congress that are here, annie custer, porter,ngas, carol shea from right here in New Hampshire. I want to thank everyone associated with planned parenthood from the board to the staff to the supporters, one and all. I particularly want to thank your fearless leader, Cecile Richards. [applause] ms. Clinton there is a lot about cecile that i really admire. Among the long list, when republicans demanded that she testified before congress, they did not know what they were getting themselves into. [applause] ms. Clinton i know a little about this. [laughter] one of myn it is common experiences with cecile. For five hours, republicans bullied and blustered. She never flinched. She told them the facts. A lot of republicans are factaverse. They seem to live in a evidencefree zone. When it was over, i saw an interview where someone asked cecile, how did you do it . Ised in you stay so po the face of such breathtaking contempt for womens dignity . Do you know what her answer was . When you are standing up for what is right, you keep going. [applause] ms. Clinton that is what planned parenthood has done for , certainly what Cecile Richards has done. She comes by that grit and determination from her wonderful mother, who i was privileged to know. I wish she could be with us for this election. [applause] ms. Clinton wouldnt you love to hear her give donald trump and ted cruz and the others a piece of her mind . Oh, boy, so what i. Every election is important. But this one poses such a stark choice, and the stakes are so high. Of 2017, a new president will walk into the oval office. America cannot afford for it to be a republican who will rip away all the progress we have made. Them, you hear what they are saying, as they joust for position. The same topdown policies that failed and led to the great recession. To understandem what is going on in the lives of whether it is Economic Policy or Health Care Policy or foreign policy. They are so out of touch and out of date. This year, they succeeded in passing a bill to repeal the Affordable Care act and defund planned parenthood. The only thing stopping them from making that the law of the land was president obamas veto pen. [applause] and every one of them had promised to sign such a bill. You know what that means. Parenthood is threatened, the health of women too, all of men, across our country, is threatened. ,ust like here in New Hampshire when the executive Council Voted to defund planned parenthood. Without the Affordable Care act, 19 million americans would Lose Health Care they would be free to discriminate against people with preexisting conditions, free to go back to charging women more for our health care than men
