Memo from Missouri Right to Life:
Background

Bryan Pratt (R-55), which ensures that a woman considering an abortion is offered an ultrasound image of her unborn child, is given information on her child’s ability to feel pain, and is protected from being coerced into an abortion.

“I am calling to urge you to support HB 46 & 434, or its Senate version, SB 264. Women deserve full information before considering an abortion.
