LETTER: Calls on Congress to support the Women’s Health Protection Act

Now more than ever, reproductive rights are under attack.

Across the country, there have been 400 needless abortion restrictions enacted since 2011, which is why Congress must act to stop these dangerous attacks.

Currently, there is a bill in Congress called the Women’s Health Protection Act (S.1645/H.R. 2975), which would prohibit these restrictions and protect the rights of everyone who seeks to exercise their right to abortion care.

Most people who have abortions already have children, and research shows they do so mainly due to concerns for their families.

We need Congress to act now. I am calling on all members of Congress to support the Women’s Health Protection Act and implore every person in my community to do the same.

Robert B. Kaplan,

Port Angeles
