Reproductive Health Access Day of Action

Wednesday, May 15th 10AM – 3PM
Illinois State Capitol – Springfield

Come to Springfield and lobby your legislators on two key legislative measures:

1. The Reproductive Heath Act which repeals dangerous restrictions on abortions and requires insurance plans to cover abortion.

2. Repeal the Teen Endangerment Law (Parental Notice of Abortion) which requires a healthcare provider to notify an adult family member prior to performing an abortion on a minor. This bill puts young women at risk and creates a medically unnecessary barrier to care.

Passing HB 40 was just the first step to ensure that Illinois retains safe, legal access to reproductive healthcare in a post-Roe US. If Roe is overturned by SCOTUS, several antiquated IL abortion laws will be enforced. We can’t let this happen and we cannot go back!

Please join us in Springfield to urge legislators to SUPPORT these two legislative initiatives.
