Dr. George Tiller was shot and killed Sunday morning while serving as an usher at his church in Witchita , Kansas . Since the 1970s, Dr. Tiller has provided critical abortion and reproductive health care at great personal risk. In doing so, he has saved the lives and futures of countless women and girls across the country. His murder is a tragedy for his family, friends, and colleagues. It is also a tragedy for the women who need his care and for the entire community of health care providers and advocates, and for all of us who believe in a woman's right to dignity and self-determination. Please join us in honoring this great man who truly lived by his motto to "Trust Women."
Join the Boston community in sharing our grief and celebrating the life of Dr. George Tiller, a true hero for women across the country.

Big Wall Street banks brought on America's worst financial crisis since the great depression. While their actions destroyed America's jobs, homes, and hope, the big banks got billions in taxpayer bailouts--and went back to business as usual. It's time to tell the banks to start paying for America's recovery by investing in GOOD JOBS NOW!
