Pennsylvania now doing an ultrasound bill with some worse measures. Sign petition!

Just got this in my email from Keystone Progress. Please click on the link to see their letter
which has more info as to what is in the bill.


You’ve probably heard about the Virginia ultrasound bill that has been in the news.

But did you realize Pennsylvania has a bill pending that’s even worse? The Pennsylvania House of Representatives is poised to take up HB1077, the disingenuously titled “Women’s Right to Know Act”.

Are you ready to stop the cruel, demeaning attacks on women in Pennsylvania? Click here to urge your representative to vote NO on HB 1077 and stop this demeaning and unnecessary bill from becoming law in Pennsylvania.

This bill operates under the guise that women aren't smart enough to understand their own bodies. It requires all women seeking an abortion to be subjected to a mandatory ultrasound at least 24 hours in advance. It requires the ultrasound screen to be aimed toward the woman's face but 'permits her to avert her eyes' and also requires that she deliver a print of the image to her physician in order to have the procedure.

The PA Medical Society and other medical groups have already come out in opposition to this incredible invasion of the physician/patient relationship.

We won in Virginia when there was national outrage. Please help us stop this outrageous bill in Pennsylvania by clicking on this link.

Here's our letter to Virginia:
