Help Us Defeat (Another) Anti-Choice Bill in Wyoming

ACTION NEEDED: We need your help to defeat Senate File 88, the so-called "Woman'sright to reproductive safety and information.” This bill would impose a 24-hour waiting period on women who are seeking abortion services, impose an ultrasound requirement, and require women to be given government-specified information regarding abortion (including medically inaccurate information such as abortion causing an increased risk of breast cancer). It would ban nearly every abortion in Wyoming, no matter what a woman's circumstances.

SF88 has been assigned to the Senate Judiciary Committee.  The committee hearing will be tomorrow , Friday, February 1, at 8:00 am in Room 302.  Please e-mail the Senate Judiciary Committee members and ask them to VOTE "NO" on Senate File 88, "Woman's right to reproductive safety and information."

You may also vocalize your opposition to House Bill 97 at the online voter hotline, or by calling the telephone hotline -- 1-866-996-8683 (or 307-777-8683 for local callers within the Cheyenne area).  The telephone hotline is staffed only when the Legislature is in session, approximately 8:00-5:00 Monday-Friday.

We need to defeat this bill in committee so that it does not move on to the full Senate.  Thank you for helping us oppose this dangerous and mean-spirited attempt to limit women's access to safe, legal abortion services in Wyoming.
