Anti-choice deception decoded —

Email from Planned Parenthood:


There's a nice-sounding bill that became law in North Carolina last year: the Women and Children's Protection Act.

You care about women and children, you want them to be protected — seems like something you might want to support, right?

Wrong. This bill isn't about protecting anyone. It actually forces women seeking certain abortions to undergo an ultrasound — and then submit that ultrasound image to the state government. So, the people who work for Governor Pat "McCreepy" McCrory get to peek at your uterus — FUN! [Remember Virginia's "Gov Ultrasound"?]

In all seriousness, this is just one of many bills meant to sound pro-woman while actually pushing outrageous attacks on reproductive health and rights.

Anti-women's health lawmakers think they can sneak their dangerous agenda through if they come up with misleading, pleasant-sounding names for their bills. Don't be fooled.

The Supreme Court wasn't fooled when it struck down Texas's anti-abortion bill, HB 2, in June — saying the burdens these state laws impose on women could not be justified by claims that they protect women's health.

That decision has already caused similar laws in three other states to falter, and gives us a strong legal argument for undoing even more restrictions. But it all starts with recognizing their true motives, which are more often than not thinly veiled attempts to restrict access to reproductive health care.

Find out what's happening in your state and others now — and take action with us to stop the attacks on reproductive health and rights where you live and beyond!
