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.
