An Open Letter

To: Sen. Murray, Rep. Gluesenkamp Perez, Sen. Cantwell

From: A verified voter in Vancouver, WA

September 19, 2024

I am your constituent and I want you to know Amber Thurman, 28, and Candi Miller, 41, both died in 2022, not long after the Georgia abortion ban went into effect. They needed a D&C to save their lives and doctors told them to pound sand because they were afraid to go to jail. A D&C is a medical procedure to clean up after a miscarriage. Similar to an abortion but not the same. OK now you have the names of dead women that the abortion bans killed. When will you say it is enough. I want you to get in front of microphones and denounce the laws that caused their deaths and then I want you to do everything in your power to get the Women’s Health Protection Act to a vote and restore a woman’s bodily autonomy. I will remember your actions and your words when elections roll around. I promise.” I want you to take a public stand NOW for the Women’s Health Protection Act to restore a woman’s bodily autonomy. Again, If I don’t see something or hear anything from you, then I will vote accordingly.
