Public Hearing - Abortion

July 27, 2022 @ 9:00 am 10:00 am

House Bill 302, a criminal abortion ban, has been passed by the House Health and Human Resources Committee and has advanced to the Judiciary Committee. Because of the governor's last-minute amendment to the scope of the session, this cruel ban with no exceptions for rape or incest is being rushed through the legislative process. Make sure your voice is heard.
