Floridians: 5 Repubs and 1 Dem targeted for abortion vote forcing ultrasounds before all abortions
Clean out the Florida House and Senate! If these people represent your district, you have a mission in November.



Republicans and 1 Democrat targeted for abortion vote forcing ultrasounds before all abortions

By Mary Ellen Klas
May 16, 2008


Planned Parenthood of Florida is sending mail pieces out targeting five Republicans and one Democrat -- all facing tough November election fights -- for their votes on the bill requiring anyone seeking an abortion to have an ultrasound.

The legislators under fire: Sens. Jeff Atwater, R-North Palm Beach, and Mike Fasano, R-New Port Richey and Reps. Gayle Harrell, R-Port St. Lucie, Doug Holder, R-Sarasota, and Matt Hudson, R-Naples and Darren Soto, D-Orlando. All but Harrell face tough re-election battles. Harrell is running for Congress.

The goal, said Adrienne Kimmell of Planned Parenthood, is to "hold elected officials accountable for their votes.''
