Dear [decision maker],
I am writing to express my disapproval of SB 776. This bill is nothing more than political pandering to anti-choice forces in an election year.
SB 776 is an unnecessary, wasteful and politically-motivated bill that seeks to ban an abortion method that is already banned at the federal level.
In addition, this bill prohibits a rarely used, yet medically necessary abortion method and does not provide an exception to protect a woman's health. Furthermore, no matter what Michigan law says, this medical method is already outlawed here and across the country.
Please stop wasting taxpayer time and resources with political votes that hurt women.
view more Instead focus on the pressing issues facing the state. If you are truly committed to improving the lives of Michigan women, please work with women's health advocates and policy makers to promote a woman's ability to make informed and responsible health care decisions, prevent unintended pregnancies and strengthen families.
Please do not waste our tax dollars and time on an issue designed only to create divisiveness and gain personal political favor from anti-choice forces. Please do not hold purely political votes on a procedure already banned under federal law. Instead, turn your attention to real problems facing the state.

[Your name here]
