Let’s meet

Derrick Jackson

State Representative,
Georgia House District 68

Democrat

The proof:

Derrick voted against a bill that bans all abortions after a fetal heartbeat (around 6 weeks). It includes exceptions for medical emergencies and rape or incest (but only up to 20 weeks and if a police report has been filed).

Review Bill

Take Action

What to do now:

Thank Derrick for his support:

This legislator has consistently shown that they will protect abortion rights.

What to say:

Thank them for their consistency. Your support will encourage them to continue to vote this way, and may give them the confidence to become a stronger advocate of pro-choice legislation.

  • Introduce yourself, including your relation to the district.
  • Explain to them why abortion rights and access are important to you. (Personal stories work well here)
  • Thank them for their efforts, and encourage them to continue the fight.

“The U.S. Senate will be voting on an abortion bill this week. Let me be absolutely clear! As Lieutenant Governor, I will do everything in my power to guarantee that women have control over their own bodies! In other words, our four daughters should have the same rights over their bodies—like our three sons do over their bodies!”

“it’s a very gloomy day today! HB 481 prohibits abortion after six (6) weeks and OB/GYN, physicians (not politicians) who delivers babies, highlighted that most women are NOT aware they are pregnant. HB 481 eradicating #WomenChoice Question for those who are pro-life…why do you support alleviating the programs & policies to sustain life between ages 1-18? #Hypocrisy”

Review Bill

“HB 481 is an anti-abortion bill, which is WRONG for #Georgia … it’s WRONG to restrict #womenchoice … it’s WRONG to threaten the OB/GYN profession, especially when 79 of 159 counties are without a OB/GYN.”
