Help Stop SB20, the Monster Abortion Ban! |
In just 48 hours last week, anti-abortion lawmakers in the NC General Assembly introduced and passed a monster abortion ban. This bill bans abortion after 12 weeks, puts further limits on medication abortion, mandates 3 in-person visits for abortion care, and so much more. It is full of medically unnecessary, political, and spiteful restrictions on abortion care, and it’s now on the Governor’s desk. Governor Cooper has promised to veto this bill, and our focus is ensuring there is a path to upholding his veto. Below are three actions you can take today to protect abortion access in North Carolina. |
1) Contact the Governor to thank him for his promise to veto SB20! His office needs to know that there is opposition to this bill from thousands of people around the state.
|
2) Write a letter to the editor! The bill sponsors know banning abortion is not popular with North Carolinians, which is why they crafted this ban behind closed doors and rushed it through the process. The sponsors are insisting that this bill has the support of people in our state, but we know that it is not true! We need to make sure as many people as possible know the truth about this bill and to demonstrate that majority of people in our state support abortion access and oppose this bill.
