U.S. House to Vote on the Women’s Health Protection Act
THIS FRIDAY – 9/24
Texas’s extreme abortion ban makes clear: We need a federal law that protects the right to abortion in every state. Congress must pass the Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA) of 2021.
Equal access to abortion care—everywhere—is essential for social and economic equality, reproductive autonomy, and the right to determine our own lives.
The Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA) is federal legislation that works toward a future where all of us are free to make the personal decisions that shape our lives, our futures, and our families, without political interference.
It’s Time to Tell Congress: VOTE YES on WHPA!
FIRST:
ALL of New York’s Democratic Congressional Representatives are Co-Sponsors.
