Protect women's constitutional right to reproductive healthcare
To: Rep. Ross
From: A constituent in Raleigh, NC
May 16
The Life at Conception Act seeks to establish a federal right to life from the moment of fertilization, effectively banning abortion nationwide with no exceptions. This extreme measure would strip away the reproductive freedoms currently protected under Roe v. Wade and undermine established precedent on a woman's right to choose. Medical experts agree that abortions performed within the first 24 weeks of pregnancy, before fetal viability, are a fundamental part of comprehensive reproductive healthcare. Denying this right would have devastating impacts on women's health and autonomy. I urge you to reject this unconstitutional overreach and uphold the established legal framework that balances the interests of the unborn with a woman's liberty to make private medical decisions about her own body.
