Last week, John the members of the Oregon House and Senate health care committees received over 30,000 emails combined, asking for hearings on two pro-life bills (described below).
The pro-life members in the committees did what they could. Ultimately, the chairs had the power and were too scared or too biased, or both, to even hold a courtesy hearing on either bill.
This week, please use the tool below to quickly send several customizable messages: one of gratitude to each pro-life members and one of displeasure to their colleagues who shirked their duty to protect Oregonians.

Born-Alive Infants Protection:
SB 1523
This bill requires abortion providers to exercise a proper degree of care to preserve the health and life of a baby born alive during or after an abortion. The bill also requires that a baby born during an abortion procedure be immediately transported and admitted to a hospital for care.
Pain-Capable Infants Protection:
HB 4048
This bill would ban abortions after 20 weeks gestation. The bulk of science proves that babies are capable of experiencing pain by 20 weeks gestation. HB 4048 would require an abortion provider to first determine the gestational age of a baby before performing an abortion. If violated, the abortion provider’s license would be subject to review by the Oregon Health Authority.
