FFRF is asking you to quickly contact and urge your state senator to vote against HB 4004, a bill that would ban abortion after 15 weeks.
Such a blatantly religiously influenced bill should not be allowed to proceed and take effect.
This bill, which is unconstitutional under Roe v. Wade, is similar to the Mississippi ban awaiting an early summer decision by the Supreme Court. With the bill already passed in the House, now is the last chance to stop this outrageous infringement.
This law would affect the most vulnerable people in West Virginia. Please urge your state senator to stand up for constitutionally protected reproductive health care rights by voting against this bill before anti-choice Gov. Jim Justice passes it.
If you have not previously signed up for action alerts using FFRF’s new system, which debuted Feb. 3, 2022, there is a one-time requirement to fill in your name, email and address. Then our system will remember you and connect you to the correct governmental offices. (If you move addresses, please update this information accordingly.)

Talking Points
As your constituent, I am urging you to vote “no” on HB 4004, a ban on abortion at 15 weeks. This callous attack on abortion rights will endanger the lives and safety of women in West Virginia, and it is critical to me as a voter that you stop it in its tracks. With more than 70 percent of Americans opposing the overturn of Roe v. Wade, any bill aiming to restrict Roe is inconsistent with American values.
