Rep Viola Davis HD87 - OPINION: The women-led city that just rejected Georgias abortion ban...Mayor Melanie Hammet and the Pine Lake City Council passed an Abortion Anti-Criminalization Resolution. #GHDC #DeKalbGADems #gapol
Sep 9, 2022
Davis presented Resolution R – 09-2022 for the city of Pine Lake. The sweeping local resolution not only bans local funds from going toward recording, investigating or helping with the prosecution of the so-called “heartbeat law,” it also instructs the city’s four police officers not to make arrests, investigate, provide information about or even record reports of miscarriage or abortion. It also declares that the City Council “supports an individual’s right to choose” and that the council “has a responsibility to protect its residents from any violation of their human rights.” “We were looking for something that was strong and something that would stick out above all others to show that we really want to protect women’s reproductive rights,” she said.
