Planned Parenthood's Letter of Non-support to Paul Ryan.

Dear Mr. Ryan,

NO WAY. NO HOW. NOT EVER.

There's no way I can support your candidacy for vice president of the United States of America.

Not when you're committed to banning safe and legal abortion, even for women who are the victims of incest and rape.

Not when you've co-sponsored a truly radical bill that would define "personhood" as beginning at conception — which could have outlawed all abortion and even many forms of birth control, including the pill.

Not when you are determined to shut down Planned Parenthood health centers and cut women off from health care.

I stand with millions of people across the country who believe in maintaining and increasing access to health care and funding for women's health in telling you that there is no way, no how we will let someone like you be elected vice president. Not this November. Not ever.

Signed,
