Most would agree that abortion is no laughing matter. And in a new television ad campaign launching tomorrow, one pro-choice group says the notion abortion rights are under attack in the health care reform debate is no joke.

The Center For Reproductive Rights is responsible for the ads, which urge the Senate to drop the abortion provisions found inserted into the House health reform bill through the Stupak amendment. “Don’t let Congress ban abortion coverage millions of American women already have,” the ad reads.

A spokesperson for the Center said the ads will run in the DC market on air and and cable at first, though the group expects that will “grow” in the future. The ad is also part of a new national online campaign the group is launching this week.
