Time Range For Action Alert:
May 18, 2023 to May 31, 2023S.474 Six-week "heartbeat" abortion ban returns to the SC Senate
Urge your senator to reject Bill 474, an overreach into our health care decisions.
The South Carolina House passed Senate Bill 474, a bill that bans abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, which is before the vast majority of people even know they're pregnant. House lawmakers passed an amended version of the bill, sending it back to the Senate for their consideration and concurrence. This ban is not yet law, and the fight continues next week.
Anti-abortion legislators in South Carolina want to force people, including children, to give birth in this state and make abortion impossible to access.
