The C is for Choice! by Erica C. Barnett. Here's ECB Getting all Second Wave at PubliCola HQ.


Our very own Erica C. Barnett is one of NARAL's "Power of Choice" 2010 award winners.

Every year NARAL gives a Power of Choice Award to someone in the community who courageously promotes choice.

The NARAL announcement
about Erica's award says:
Erica has also been an amazing advocate for reproductive justice in the media. Last December, she reported on the Senate health care reform language that “throws women’s health care under the bus.” She also covered the murder of late-term abortion provider, Dr. George Tiller, for the Stranger, saying that “there is no common ground—not when "common ground" is code for ceding women's rights to calm a storm we didn't create.”We are very excited to present the Power of Choice Award to such a devoted advocate!

Crank it up, ECB.

This year's other winner is Catherine Minch, a NARAL activist—the leader and founder of the Eastside Choice Action Team.

The awards luncheon is on May 24 at the Sheraton featuring PBS host Maria Hinojosa. Details here.
