National Committee on Federal Legislation for Birth Control

The National Committee on Federal Legislation for Birth Control was a birth control lobbying organization set up in 1929 by Margaret Sanger and the Illinois Birth Control League.[1]

The committee was disbanded in 1937, six months after the successful outcome in favor of birth control of the court case United States v. One Package of Japanese Pessaries.[2]
