 They're at it again. The Oklahoma State Senate is taking an unusually early move to apparently kill Senate Bill 495, the Equal Protection and Equal Justice Act that abolishes abortion in Oklahoma. In a perverse move, this will be taking place on the annual 'Rose Day', an annual pro-life rally at the Capitol (being held virtually this year, because Rose Day is virtually worthless in accomplishing anything to end abortion). SB 495 challenges the status quo (of regulating abortion rather than ending it), and thus limp-wristed and weak legislative leaders evidently believe that it must be crushed before the Abolition Day rally on Tuesday the 9th.Here's an emergency briefing from Free The States, an organization that is leading the charge to abolish abortion:
Call and email the members of the State Senate Health and Human Services Committee TODAY, asking them to PASS Senate Bill 495 and abolish abortion in Oklahoma.
The committee will meet Tuesday morning at 9am in Meeting Room 535 at the State Capitol.
I'll update this post with contact information shortly.
