Got no looks in the Iowa forum, so I am putting it in GD:
This was scheduled for last night, then changed to today
***ACTION ALERT: Secret GOP Abortion Bill***
Just minutes before a scheduled committee vote, Republicans dropped a secret plan to prohibit abortion beginning as early as 6 weeks, called "fetal heartbeat".
Make no mistake about it, House Republicans are pushing this bill through at the last minute for the special interests because they don't want to hear from Iowans. The House Human Resources Committee is planning to vote on this bill TONIGHT. (You can read the secret plan here)
We need just two Republicans on the Human Resources Committee to vote with Democrats and help us stop this plan. Can you call these four Republicans right now and tell them to vote NO on the fetal heartbeat amendment to Senate File 471?
Rep. Michael Bergan - 563-380-3974
Rep. Dave Heaton - 319-931-4792
Rep. Tom Moore - 515-281-3221
Rep. Rob Taylor - 515-281-3221
Here's what we know about this terrible bill so far:
It was unveiled just hours ago, but they want to vote on it tonight
It appears the amendment will ban common forms of birth control
It bans abortion as early as 6 weeks, before many women even know they are pregnant
