Take Action

What to do now:

Thank Shelly 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.

Jesus’ mom had a unintended pregnancy! Could you imagine the world without Jesus had she made a different choice?

The latest from Shelly

"Q: Folks have talked about abortion as an issue that could be brought up this session. What are your thoughts on that? A: I think that women have the right to make a decision about their own bodies. So I won't vote for anything that would inhibit them from making a decision."
