We need your help to stop the domino effect. The abortion ban signed in South Dakota two weeks ago was only the beginning. The governor of Mississippi, Haley Barbour, recently said if an abortion ban reaches his desk, he will sign it.
Act now: http://go.care2.com/e/Jfg/j3/Erx6
Mississippi is already one of the most anti-choice states in the country; 98% of the state's counties have no abortion provider. And for weeks now, the state legislature has been debating a strict abortion ban like the one that was signed into law in South Dakota. The latest news: last night, the Mississippi Senate and House failed to come to agreement on the specifics of the ban under debate.
While the committee deadline has passed, Mississippi is sure to take up this issue again as soon as they can. Protests from around the country have been shining a spotlight on Mississippi in recent days, and we need to keep up the pressure on Gov. Barbour to oppose any abortion ban that reaches his desk: http://go.care2.com/e/Jfg/j3/Erx6
Ten more states have proposed criminalizing abortion, as well. Extremists are open about their strategy: they think the time has come for them to complete their attack on a woman's freedoms. They want to criminalize reproductive health, interfere with a woman's relationship with her medical professional, and roll back our basic reproductive rights.
The pro-choice movement has asked them to join us in preventing unintended pregnancies through education and better access to birth control. They've ignored us.
Add your voice to the outcry to protect the women of Mississippi from a dangerous ban.
Tell Gov. Barbour that Americans do not support any bans on the right to choose! And once you've taken action, please be sure to tell your friends about this dangerous new development. Tons of people who have never been involved are joining the fight now. A lot of us thought it couldn't happen, but it is happening. There is no room for complacency anymore. Thank you for standing up for a woman's right to choose
