No Taxes for Abortion Insurance Petition Drive Update! Phase 2 Starts Now!

CONTACT YOUR LEGISLATOR
MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD

Together we did it! Thank you for collecting signatures to keep our tax dollars and health insurance premiums from paying for abortion as part of health care. More than 315,000 signatures were submitted to the Secretary of State's office on Friday, October 4 -- with 2 months to spare.

Once the signatures are certified after Thanksgiving the bill will be presented to the state legislature.

That is why Phase 2 starts now! Prolife people need to contact their Lansing legislators and lobby them to vote in favor of the Abortion Insurance Opt-Out Act.

The vote in the state House and state Senate is expected in early December. Plan now to call, e-mail or visit your Michigan senator and representative. You may be able to connect with your lawmaker while he or she is in the district for Thanksgiving break.  

TELL YOUR LEGISLATORS:
► Vote YES on the ABORTION INSURANCE OPT-OUT ACT.
► I don't want my tax dollars and insurance premiums paying for abortions.
► Abortion is not health care; abortion kills a living, developing human being.
► Abortion should not be included as a standard 'benefit' in health insurance plans.
