Representatives Keith Kidwell, Ben Moss, and Edward Goodwin have sponsored NC House Bill 533, "Human Life Protection Act of 2023", which will ban abortion in NC. As you can imagine, they're getting a lot of negative feedback about this bill and can use our encouragement. Please contact them to thank them for introducing this bill and encourage them to keep fighting for its passage - and encourage others to contact them.

 NC has a higher abortion limit (20 weeks) than all of our neighbors except VA, so we're the go-to state for abortions in the southeast. There's even a billboard on I-77 in SC! The 20 week limit is going to be reduced during this legislative session (6 & 12 weeks have been discussed), so let's provide strong support for this bill, which will save ALL preborn lives.

Please contact your elected officials.
