As early as today, January 11, 2023, the House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Please contact your representative to urge them to vote “yes” on H.R. 26. This bill requires health care professionals to offer the same level of medical care to children who are fully born and living after a failed abortion as would be appropriate for a premature baby born at the same age.
Please urge your member to help save these vulnerable human beings by offering appropriate medical care.
