On Wednesday, January 26, 9 am, the SC Senate Medical Affairs Committee will take up two dangerous bills: 1) S.988 "Trigger Law," bans all abortions and declares a fertilized egg to be a person; 2) S. 907 "Abortion Reversal Bill" requiring health professionals to provide unproven misinformation.

We hope our members will do so as constituents and individuals.
