Take Action

What to do now:

Tell John how important abortion rights are to you:

This legislator has made their anti-choice position clear. They intend to enact laws that would further limit access to abortion.

What to say:

Call your legislator to share how important abortion rights are to you. While you're on the phone, try to gain a deeper understanding of their exact position.

  • Introduce yourself, including your relation to the district.
  • Emphasize your role in the local community.
  • Explain why abortion rights are important to you.
  • Ask if they will commit to voting for any legislation that will protect the right to an abortion.
  • If they say no, ask which abortion restrictions they are pushing for.

Review Bill

Supported by the NH Right to Life PAC, an anti-abortion group. Their definition of "support" is: "candidates that we didn’t endorse who we believe would be the most life-affirming choice in a particular race. Note that this depends heavily on the context of the race and could range from candidates that are strongly pro-life to those that don’t openly advocate rolling back the existing protections for preborn children."
