The women of Texas need your help. A new law has just been quietly passed and put into affect on September 1st, 2021 labeled the “Heartbeat Act” or “Heartbeat Bill”, barring any woman from getting an abortion after the technical “six week” mark in a pregnancy. Under the assumption that a fetus has a “heartbeat” at this point, this new bill makes getting a safe abortion after SIX weeks illegal for anyone needing one, regardless of circumstance (rape, underaged pregnancy, medical complications, etc.). This was passed with hardly any public knowledge of it, nor the chance to vote against it. As you may or may not know, most women do not even begin to suspect they are pregnant at or before six weeks, making this unconstitutional and out of our control. On top of this heinous act, there has also been a new website created specifically for anyone to anonymously (yes, anonymously) TURN ANYONE IN for getting an abortion after September 1st, provided they have sufficient evidence, for a possible reward (disgusting, I know). This decision is going to kill the women of Texas who no longer have access to safe, legal abortions and has taken away any right we might have had over our own bodies and lives. Sign this petition to have the bill reversed and help the women of Texas take back control! Bans on abortion do not lower abortion rates, they only force women to turn to unsafe, deadly methods.
