Time to take the lead on women's health

Dear Senator,

I've just learned that the Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing on the Women's Health Protection (S. 1696) on July 15. The Women's Health Protection Act will enforce and protect the constitutional right to safe, legal abortion, no matter what state a woman lives in.



This hearing is extremely important, and is a great opportunity for our elected officials on the committee like you to publicly highlight the need for the bill to protect women's health and rights across the country.



I strongly urge you to stand up in this hearing and champion the Women's Health Protection Act.





* Personalize your message Already, 34 Senators have signed on to cosponsor this legislation. That's because they recognize that for too long, reproductive rights in this country have been chipped away by extremist politicians who think nothing of putting political ideology above women's health, rights, and safety. In the past three years state legislatures have passed nearly 200 restrictions that interfere with a woman's personal decisions about her health and future. That's more than the previous decade combined. It's time to reverse the trend. Under the Women's Health Protection Act, states could no longer impose oppressive and medically unnecessary requirements on reproductive health care providers. They could not enforce laws such as those that restrict medication abortion, deny women and doctors the opportunity to use telemedicine, or force women to undergo invasive mandatory and unnecessary ultrasounds.

Thank you for your time and consideration,
