Deadline Date Set for State-Wide NO Taxes For Abortion Insurance Petition Drive! Please keep collecting
signatures through September 30, but send in petitions immediately as they are
completed with one signature up to ten signatures. Petitions
should be post-marked by Monday, September 30. We have
reached the legal requirement of 258,088 signatures to initiate the Abortion Insurance
Opt-Out legislation, but we are pushing for an additional 20 percent cushion, A 20 percent cushion allows for errors. In addition to
preventing a challenge, additional signatures will send a strong message to our
lawmakers, abortion is not health care and no citizen should be forced to pay
for a procedure that destroys innocent human life. Questions or supplies go to: www.MichigansVoice.com.
