A member of the "Planned Parenthood' women's rights group protests against the "Stupak Ammendment" which they say will ban private abortion coverage for millions of American women, outside the Federal Courthouse in Los Angeles on November 20, 2009. Rights advocates have accused the most pro-choice US government in decades of throwing women under the bus after lawmakers tagged on an amendment restricting abortion access and funding to the health care reform bill. The amendment would bar the proposed federal government insurance program, known as the "public option," from paying for abortion, except to save the life of the mother or in cases of rape or incest.
