Write a Letter to your Representative: BLOCK 15-WEEK ABORTION BAN
Republican lawmakers in Florida have filed a bill seeking to ban abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy. The only exceptions are serious medical emergencies for the mother or fatal fetal abnormalities. There are no exceptions for pregnancy caused by rape or incest.
A 15-week ban violates the Supreme Court's precedent in Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court case that established a woman's right to terminate her pregnancy before the fetus is viable, at around 24 weeks.“Decisions about women's health care choices should be between them and THEIR doctors. House Bill 5 is a direct infringement on reproductive access. We must defend a woman’s freedom to make her own health care choices. The last thing we need is Tallahassee or Washington politicians denying every woman the freedom to make informed health care choices with their doctors and their loved ones.”- Senator Annette Taddeo.
We MUST stop this bill from passing. Write a letter to your representatives now, and urge them to vote AGAINST HB-5. Only together can we protect women's rights.
