Support the RESPECT Act!

For the past decade, Wisconsin state legislators have passed laws that take information and options away from a woman and her family. These laws disregard medical science, the wellbeing of patients, and the patient-doctor relationship. This unprecedented political interference with a woman’s personal health care decisions undermines women’s health in Wisconsin.

Wisconsin women and their health care providers deserve better!

It’s time to support a bold, proactive reproductive health agenda in Wisconsin to push back against these state and federal attacks on access to comprehensive care. We’ve been on the defensive for too long. In fact, since 1973, Wisconsin has passed more than 20 laws against abortion, including laws that force physicians to provide women with medically inaccurate or unnecessary information, delay her decision, require tests she doesn’t need, and impose medically unnecessary requirements on consent, reporting, and physician admitting privileges.

The RESPECT Act promotes a vision that a woman has the ability and support to make her own reproductive healthcare decisions free from harassment, intimidation, political interference, or false information. That’s something we can all believe in!

We just need few pieces of information to connect you with representatives.

Wisconsin State Legislators

Subject: Please Support the RESPECT Act

Message:

Hello. As your constituent, I am writing to urge your support of the Respect Act (LRB-5042/1 & LRB-5043/1), which would repeal current abortion restrictions in Wisconsin and ensure all patients receive the necessary and accurate medical information they deserve. Choosing to start a family or have an abortion is a private and personal decision, but restrictions on abortion take away pregnant individuals’ autonomy over their bodies and livelihoods. The Respect Act will not only restore basic bodily autonomy but will also enable patients to make safe and well-informed medical decisions. Wisconsin abortion restrictions create deeply unsafe conditions by forcing doctors to provide unscientific information intended to misguide pregnant patients for purely political motives. Politicians have no place in legislating someone’s personal decision to have an abortion. My body, my choice/Your body, your choice. However, legislators owe it to their constituents to ensure access to fair and patient-focused health care, including safe abortion care. Existing restrictions are unscientific, dangerous, take away patients’ autonomy, and must be repealed. We all deserve evidence-based, medically accurate, and comprehensive abortion and reproductive healthcare. I look forward to hearing your response on this important issue, as well as your support of the Respect Act.
