From Planned Parenthood:
BREAKING NEWS: Two different extremist groups have filed ballot measures to ban abortions and much more!
The first initiative, filed by Missouri Roundtable for Life, attempts to ban abortions in public hospitals even when a woman’s life is at risk or in cases of rape and incest. This measure is too extreme for Missouri!
The second initiative, filed by Gregory Thompson and Personhood Missouri, would not only ban common forms of contraception, YES, we said CONTRACEPTION, but would also ban treatments for cancer, life-threatening pregnancies and infertility and ban ALL abortions even in cases of rape, incest or when a woman’s life is in danger.
Talk about government intrusion at its worst.Missouri already has some of the most restrictive abortion laws in the country, and does not need the government coming between women and their doctors. If the supporters of these measures were serious about reducing the need for abortions they would join us in putting prevention first and focus on reducing unintended pregnancies by providing comprehensive sex education and increasing access to contraception and other family planning services.
