I need to bring you up to speed on what
just happened in Springfield.
House Bill 5408 has PASSED the
Illinois House and has now been sent over to
the Senate!
The Senate companion to this bill is
S.B. 4011 -- a bill Illinois Pro-Life Action has been
fighting all session long!
So far, we have helped keep
S.B. 4011 from moving.
But now, with HB 5408 crossing over,
the pressure is about to ramp up in a big way.
This is exactly how these fights
escalate.
What starts in one chamber can
quickly become a full-blown push to ram dangerous legislation through
both chambers before anyone has time to react.
Make no mistake: this is a coordinated
effort. If they can’t move one bill, they will try
another path.
If they can’t get it through the Senate
first, they’ll send it from the House and try to force it through that
way.
That means one thing for us:
We must DOUBLE the pressure on the
Illinois Senate right
now.
Because if either S.B. 4011 or HB 5408
starts moving in the Senate, we could be looking at a
fast-track push to get this across the finish line before the session
ends.
That’s why I’m asking you to take
action immediately.
First,
please sign your official petition telling your State Senator to
OPPOSE both S.B. 4011 and HB 5408.
It only takes a moment, but it sends a
direct message that pro-life Illinoisans are watching -- and we are
not backing down.
After you sign, I need you to stand
with us in a second, critical way.
We are preparing to fight this bill at
every stage:
- Committee hearings
- Floor votes
- Media pressure
- Direct outreach to lawmakers
That takes real resources.
If
you can, please send a generous donation today to help us ramp up the
pressure program needed to stop this in the
Senate.
If a large gift isn’t possible right now, even $75, $50, or $25
will help us hold the line.
We are not going to sit back and let this happen.
We are going to fight -- every step of the way.
But we need you with us.
Please sign your petition right now, and then give as generously as
you can to help us stop S.B. 4011 and HB 5408 before it’s too
late.
For the Babies,
