Let’s meet

Craig Staats

State Representative,
Pennsylvania House District 145

The proof:

Craig sponsored a bill that proposes to amend the Pennsylvania Constitution to exclude any rights relating to abortion, and states that PA will protect every unborn child, from conception to birth.

Review Bill

Take action

Tell Craig 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.

How to reach him:

Harrisburg

Quakertown

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.
