Protect Life by Supporting 15-Week Abortion Restrictions

๐Ÿ‘‰ Act now: sign in in support of HB 476.๐Ÿ‘ˆ

A group of leading NH Republicans is pushing to extinguish the pro-life cause from the NH GOP, deferring to the far left by making late-term abortion the normal position for NH Republicans. If the NH GOP embraces pro-abortion extremism, the defeat for pro-lifers will be irreversible. 

HB 476, a 15-week limit on abortion, is an important step forward in our fight to protect life. Polling shows 64% of Granite Staters support 15-week abortion restrictions, but despite this, leading Republicans may be pressuring your representatives to surrender the pro-life cause forever. We, our churches, and our communities must all speak now, or any meaningful protections for our vulnerable preborn will be a dim memory. If you have ever thought of speaking out, speak now before it’s too late. 

HB 476 has been scheduled for an important hearing in the House Judiciary Committee, on Monday, January 27, 9:30 am in the Legislative Office Building, rooms 206-208.
