Help Stop Anti-Choice Legislation From Being Enacted Into Law!

In an eleventh hour maneuver, Republican leadership in the U.S. Senate has announced plans to bring anti-choice legislation, S. 403, to the Senate Floor for debate and vote.

This dangerous and unconstitutional legislation passed the House of Representatives earlier this week, and if it passes in the Senate, it would be signed into law by the President. However, we have an opportunity to protect teens and prevent this law from going in to effect this year. The Senate will be voting tonight on a cloture motion, which must pass with 60 votes in order to allow the Senate to proceed with a vote on S. 403. Therefore, if enough Senators vote “NO” on cloture, we can stop the Teen Endangerment Act from coming to the Floor.

Please call your Senators today and urge them to vote NO on cloture!
The Capitol Switchboard can be reached at 202.224.3121
