South Carolina lawmakers may vote on an abortion ban bill as soon as next week.
And until then, we need to flood our lawmakers’ phone lines with calls, demanding that they drop this dangerous legislation.
Ready to do more after making your phone call? Sign up to join a virtual or in-person phone bank – and connect with Planned Parenthood Votes South Atlantic for the latest in efforts to stop an abortion ban in South Carolina. Here are the sign-up pages:

Remember: LGBTQ+ people need access to abortion, and attacks on abortion, just like legislation attacking transgender people’s access to healthcare, are attacks on bodily autonomy. Our movement must speak out in force against these attacks – anytime, anywhere.
I know you’re angry and fed up by the terrible bills on the move in South Carolina right now. I am too. So here’s our chance to do something about it.
Thank you for your swift action.
