Leah Cushman

State Representative,
New Hampshire House District Hillsborough 28

Review Bill

Take Action

What to do now:

Tell Leah 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.

“How is this appropriate? Can it be any more obvious what these peoples intentions are? To create more unwanted pregnancies. Its predatory. Absolutely sick. We have our very own sickos in NH too. Normalizing abortion is depravity. What happened to safe and rare?”

“Let third trimester babies be killed to improve their mothers mental health. This is depravity on display. Whats the difference between this and allowing women with PPD to kill their prematurely-born infants? Only that one is inside the womb and one is outside.”

“Shes just crazy, nothing to see here, donate to our party! Lol So at what gestation are the rights of unborn babies to be considered if abortion is unrestricted as your party wishes? Either theyre considered in the equation and thus appropriate limitations in place, or not.”

“That any mother nevermind one that just carried a baby to term and birthed just 7 months ago could talk about unborn babies as if they are just inconvenient, disposable side effects of sex is deeply, deeply disturbing to me.”

“This is a good day to point out that Dems are demanding abortion for any reason, at any time, no matter the circumstances or the age of the baby. They completely deny that an infant, even one ready to be born, is a living human with rights to consider & defend.”
