Reject extreme attacks on women's health
Stop playing doctor. Private, personal medical decisions should be between a woman, her physician, her family, and her faith. Oppose extreme attacks on women's access to safe and legal abortion.
Why is this important?
The General Assembly is considering multiple dangerous proposals that attack women's health care access, including an extreme abortion ban and defunding Planned Parenthood. These bills aren't about medicine, they're about politics. Since 2010, the General Assembly has considered over 75 proposals restricting women’s access to abortion, including banning insurance coverage, requiring invasive, transvaginal ultrasounds, and outrageous personhood bills that even threaten birth control access. These bills are no different--they are part of a coordinated campaign to chip away at reproductive rights. We can't let them get away with it.
