Subject: What Opponents of a Woman's Right to Choose Don't Want You to Know

Anti-choice crusaders recently launched an egregious attack against women's rights. Please help NARAL alert pro-choice Americans by forwarding <http://naralaction.org/join-forward.html?domain=can&amp;r=opqsNEM1mc-5> this email to your friends.

On Friday, November 15, anti-choice legislators in Georgia's House prefiled an unconstitutional bill (HB 1) that would treat women who exercise their right to choose as "executioners."

Women seeking abortion would have to obtain a "death warrant" and go to trial against a court-appointed guardian for her fetus. A jury would decide whether she should be forced to continue the pregnancy. Doctors who perform an abortion without a "death warrant" could be imprisoned for up to 5 years.

It is hard to adequately express how outrageous this action by Georgia's anti-choice officials is.

This is an egregious violation of women's rights, and you probably won't read about it in the newspaper or hear about it on TV. These state legislative attacks on choice are typically under the radar, and pro-choice Americans don't have a chance to speak out against them.

NARAL needs you to take action today. This is the first of a new wave of assaults on reproductive rights we can expect to see nationwide. Emboldened by this month's elections, anti-choice forces are pursuing an aggressive agenda.

Please forward this alert
<http://naralaction.org/join-forward.html?domain=can&amp;r=opqsNEM1mc-5> to 5 friends so they know just how serious anti-choice lawmakers are about ending legal abortion. Please ask your friends to sign up for NARAL's Choice Action Network so that we can expose anti-choice legislators' real agenda.

You can count on NARAL to be your source of information about the right to choose - especially when anti-choice leaders want to keep their attacks quiet.
