Review Bill

Take Action

What to do now:

Tell Ken how important abortion rights are to you:

This legislator has made their anti-choice position clear. They intend to enact laws that would further limit access to abortion.

What to say:

Call your legislator to share how important abortion rights are to you. While you're on the phone, try to gain a deeper understanding of their exact position.

  • Introduce yourself, including your relation to the district.
  • Emphasize your role in the local community.
  • Explain why abortion rights are important to you.
  • Ask if they will commit to voting for any legislation that will protect the right to an abortion.
  • If they say no, ask which abortion restrictions they are pushing for.

And while you're at it…

Vote yes on Proposition 139!

Arizonans deserve the freedom to make our own healthcare decisions. The Arizona Abortion Access Act is a proposed Constitutional amendment that would establish a fundamental right to abortion. It’s based on the very-Arizona idea that people have a right to individual autonomy, including in our healthcare decisions, without unnecessary government interference.

Review Bill

"I'm definitely pro-life,'' he said. "I do not support abortion other than a few exceptions [like] the life of the mother.'' In regard to exceptions for rape and incest, Bennett said there have to be curbs to ensure "that they have to be reported and it's really a valid situation that happened rather than just an excuse given.''
