Democratic Leadership Blocks Parental Notice Bill

From the Illinois Federation for Right to Life:
Senate Democratic Leadership Blocks Advance of Parental Notice Bill

September is last chance to pass bill this year!

Despite a 65 to 34 vote in the U.S. Senate on July 25 to pass a bill to prohibit transporting minors across state lines for abortions in violation of parents' rights, the Senate Democratic leadership is using extraordinary procedural tactics to try to kill the bill.

Your help is criticially needed to win enactment of this vitally important legislation. Time is of the essence - after returning from a month-long recess on September 5, Congress has only five weeks of session left before recessing on about October 6 to campaign full-time before the November 7 congressional elections!
