Making Illinois a Shelter State for Abortion

A legendary life leader says Illinois could become a safe haven for abortion if House Bill 40 is enacted. Not only does the Planned Parenthood-backed legislation force taxpayers to fund abortions, it removes language in state law that protects unborn children.

TAKE ACTION: Please send a message to your state representative to ask him/her to vote AGAINST this pro-abortion bill. This legislation is HB 40 – a bill that would authorize the use of tax dollars to pay for abortions in Illinois through Medicaid and state government health care insurance plans. It is sponsored by State Representative Sara Feigenholtz (D-Chicago).  This bill would reverse the current law which bans taxpayer funding of abortion under Medicaid.
