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

From: A verified voter in Vancouver, WA

April 18

Trump’s hand picked anti-women supreme court justices have worked to make sure that women are no longer able to control their destiny. That’s what the Dobbs decision did. Women have been allowed to die rather than remove unviable fetuses because doctors are afraid to go to jail. If you need a reference for that here. https://www.propublica.org/article/porsha-ngumezi-miscarriage-death-texas-abortion-ban and here https://www.propublica.org/series/life-of-the-mother Moreover, women who have had an abortion have been charged with murder. Are you ok with that? https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/georgia-woman-accused-murder-after-allegedly-using-pills-end-pregnancy THIS IS JUST CRUELTY - NOT RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE - JUST CRUELTY. If you follow Judeo Christian doctrine then you know that the New Testament is silent and the Old Testament values the mother more than the fetus (Exodus 21:22-25). Women deserve the right to control their bodies, their lives and their destinies. I want you to bring up the Women’s Health Protection Act and get it to a vote. It restores the right to an abortion nationwide. That’s what the Dobbs decision said should happen. Specifically, Samuel Alito wrote in the majority opinion for Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (2022) that “Women are not without electoral or political power”. Well it is high time. While I have your attention - enact the Equal Rights Amendment - I mean 38 states said it should be in the constitution.
