Hi John,
The short 2026 legislative session begins today, and I already need your help to stop two dangerous bills.
The Bills:
House Bill 4088: Legislation to shield abortion providers and distributors of dangerous abortion pills from prosecution by law enforcement agencies of the federal government or other states. Read the bill here.
House Bill 4127: A bill to funnel additional taxpayer dollars toward funding Oregon Planned Parenthood facilities. Read the bill here.
🚨 Take Action NOW:
I need all hands on deck to take action against these dangerous bills. Here are three things you can do:
1. Submit Written Testimony
2. Send pre-crafted messages directly to lawmakers
3. Come in person to the public hearings
If you're in the area, please come to one of both of the public hearings for these bills. Simply being a pro-life presence makes a powerful statement.
HB 4088 Public Hearing
🗓️ Monday, Feb. 2 at 3 PM
📍Capitol Building, HR B
HB 4127 Public Hearing
🗓️ Tuesday, Feb. 3 at 1 PM
📍Capitol Building, HR 60
Thank you for taking action.
If you have any questions or need more information, please reach out by emailing me at [email protected] or calling (503) 463-8563.
Because everyone deserves an advocate,
Sharolyn Smith
