H. 5399 Moves to SC Senate- Details to take action!

by Ashley Lidow on Sep 2, 2022

After thousands of South Carolinians raised their voice in opposition and hundreds packed the statehouse the House of Representative passed an extreme abortion ban on August 30. This means that H.5399 will now go to the Senate for debate. South Carolina already has an extreme abortion law on the books and while it was in effect for 6 weeks caused immeasurable harm to the people in our state.

Now we need everyone to call your Senator immediately and tell them to vote NO on H. 5399 before the bill is debated on the Senate floor on Wednesday, September 7. https://p2a.co/rllc2ps

 

If you are able to show up for either of these dates that would be amazing:

Senate Medical Affairs Meeting – Tuesday, Sept. 6

Full Senate returns to debate bill – Wednesday, Sept. 7
