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)

“The people of Kansas spoke this past summer and made their position clear and that ​should be respected. I am one of many pro-life Kansans who have never advocated for ​a complete ban on abortion. I support exceptions to accommodate heartbreaking and ​difficult situations such as rape, incest, the life of the mother, and abnormalities that ​make life outside of the womb impossible. As a legislator, I will continue to support ​and work to defend the common sense laws in place today and find consensus.”
