Dear Supporters,

HB695, also known as the worst bill we've seen this legislative session for women's health, could reach the NC House of Representatives as soon as Tuesday, July 9. Together we can show legislators that we refuse to stand by as this corrosive bill becomes law. Thank you for speaking out and showing your support for Planned Parenthood.

Here's how you can take action (Share with friends!):

-Join the Planned Parenthood Action Network (PPAN) to receive our most current political updates and actions here.
-Donate to our Public Affairs efforts here.
-RSVP for Moral Monday Rally, July 8th at 4:45 pm. Remember to wear pink/purple.
-Urge Speaker Tillis and Gov. McCrory to reject HB695. Calls are very effective. If you get their voicemail, leave a message. If you don't get through, try until you do.

Call the Governor. Politely and succinctly ask the staff member who answers to tell the Governor to uphold his campaign promise not to support the passage of new abortion restrictions, including HB695. 919-814-2000.
Call Speaker Tillis. Politely and succinctly tell the staff member that you oppose HB695. This bill will now go back to the House for consideration. The more calls the Speaker gets, the less inclined will they be to take up the bill in its current form. 919-733-3451.
Email Gov. McCrory and Speaker Tillis here.

Thank you and keep fighting the good fight!

Sincerely,
Amanda Fuquay Starkey
Development Associate
