Let’s meet

Republican

The proof:

Larry sponsored a bill banning abortions after embryonic cardiac activity is detected, which happens at around six weeks, with an exception for medical emergencies and no exceptions for rape or incest.

Review Bill

Take Action

What to do now:

Tell Larry they do not represent you:

This legislator is dangerous. Their position on abortion is completely out of touch: advocating for some of the most extreme abortion bans being considered right now.

What to say:

Call your legislator and make it clear that they are going too far. Try to urge them to walk away from their most extreme positions.

  • Introduce yourself, including your relation to the district.
  • Emphasize your role in the local community.
  • Explain why you do not agree with their position. Personal stories that exemplify the problems these bans would create are helpful.
  • Ask if they will protect the right to an abortion in such cases.
  • If they say no, ask them how they plan to fund more public childcare and maternal healthcare.
