Here's the roll call votes from the cowards in committee to restrict reproductive rights

State House committee OKs bill tightening abortion restrictions
The bill, approved 16-10, would move the state’s ban on abortions after 24 weeks up to 20 weeks.

PA House "Health" Committee link: http://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/RCC/Public/listVoteSummaryH.cfm?sYear=2015&sInd=0&cteeCde=55&theDate=04/04/2016&RollCallId=1501

Committee HEALTH Date April 4, 2016
Bill/Resolution HB1948 PN3056 Type of Motion Report Bill As Committed
Maker of Motion Rep. Topper Seconded by Rep. Ward
Brief Description Amends the Abortion Control Act in Title 18 (Crimes Code) regarding abortion regulations, including changing the upper limit of when an elective abortion is available and prohibiting the practice of dismemberment abortions.


Governor Wolf will veto this move, he has said.

The committee "narrowly decided" not to postpone the vote in order to hold a hearing. Can't be bothered with a hearing, let alone passing a budget in this state whilst the same General ASSembly is busy getting their hands into our reproductive decisions.

This GA needs an enema.

Figures that Marcia Hahn (R a-hole) would vote to further restrict reproductive rights. Unfortunately, I live in a red area.

They have to start listening to us.

I had a ridiculous phone call on behalf of a national issue with Toomey's aid yesterday. These people are arrogant and irresponsible.

Enough.
