Anti-choice Representatives will soon vote on the "Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act" (H.R. 3541). This dangerous bill would deny women of color access to reproductive care and force providers to racially profile patients, or else possibly face five years in prison for providing abortion services to women of certain races. That's right, five years in prison!

Tell your Members of Congress to oppose H.R. 3541, the "Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act," and protect access to abortion care for all women.

Members of Congress supporting this bill seek to deny women of color access to full reproductive health care under the guise of "remedying" race and sex discrimination. In reality, this bill would do nothing but undercut women's dignity and safety, while also undermining the patient-provider relationship. It would encourage — if not require — racial profiling by requiring a doctor to subject a woman of color to an additional layer of scrutiny before providing her with an abortion. Ironically, many of the bill's supporters (who claim that the bill would promote gender equality) have a record of opposing legislation that actually do promote women's rights.

Stop this harmful bill now — tell your Members of Congress to oppose H.R. 3541, the "Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act," and ensure racial profiling doesn't take place in our doctors' offices.

Thank you for everything you do to protect women's access to reproductive health.
