URGENT LEGISLATIVE UPDATE - IL FOCA BILL - Passed out of Committee

Illinois Federation for Right to Life
URGENT ACTION ALERT UPDATE
March 11, 2009

The Freedom of Choice Act (HB2354) was just voted out of the Human Services Committee with a vote of 5- 2 on this morning.

Now is the time to TELL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE TO VOTE NO ON HB 2354!

Tell them the dangers of the Freedom Of Choice Act (FOCA) and urge them to vote "NO" on HB 2354. If Illinois should pass this bill, abortion would be enshrined as a right in Illinois. We would not be able to have any of the following protections:

1. Partial-birth abortion would be legal

2. There would be no conscience clause for health care workers in Illinois.

3. There would be no informed consent/waiting period.

4. There would be no parental involvement.

5. Taxpayers would pay for abortions.

6. Presently Illinois has a physician only for abortion law. That would be nullified, opening the doors for non-physician abortions.
