Greetings!
Take
Action Today
Call House Speaker Nicholas Mattiello and
Senate President Dominick Ruggerio.
Speaker Mattiello: (401) 222-2466
President Ruggerio: (401) 222-6655
Message
Ask them "Why won't you let the Reproductive Health
Care Act come to a vote?"
Let them know that
if the General Assembly does not take action this year, we will be back
next year, louder and stronger and in larger numbers.
Why?
The national
attack on reproductive rights, including the right to safe,
legal abortion, is unmistakable. President Trump is appointing
judges who oppose Roe
vs Wade and Congress is trying to pass legislation to repeal
the ACA and "defund" Planned Parenthood.
Rhode Island must
act now.
Thousands of Rhode
Islanders have called and written their legislators, showed up for
committee hearings and met directly with their own elected officials,
sent post cards and emails, marched and rallied.
The message is
clear: Rhode Islanders support the Reproductive Health Care Act, which
would put the basic protections of Roe vs Wade into Rhode Island law
so that no matter what happens at the national level, our rights are
secured.
But the Democrats
who control our General Assembly refuse to let the Reproductive Health
Care Act to come to a vote.
Let's ask them
why.
In solidarity,
Craig
