Expanding Abortion Access for All in New Jersey

Act Now

While abortion remains a fundamental legal right in New Jersey, many people cannot access the reproductive care they need due to financial barriers that push this care out of reach for too many in our state, especially communities of color, immigrants, LGBTQ+ communities, and people who are low-income.

Ensuring abortion is truly accessible starts with passing S3452/A4601, which will remove financial barriers that restrict access to reproductive health care, ensure that all qualified health care professionals are authorized to provide or assist in abortion care, and prohibit insurers from taking adverse actions against health care professionals.

Send a message to your elected officials and urge them to dismantle barriers to abortion by passing S3452/A4601.

Subject

At a time when millions of people across the country are being stripped of their fundamental human right to make decisions about their lives and bodies, New Jersey must be a leader in ensuring that the right to abortion care is accessible for all who need it.

Message Body

Though our Legislature has taken important steps to ensure abortion remains legal and protected in New Jersey, people across the state still cannot access the reproductive care they need because of financial barriers. These financial barriers push care out of reach for far too many, especially communities of color, immigrants, LGBTQ+ communities, and people who are low-income.

To begin dismantling these barriers, I’m urging New Jersey lawmakers to pass S3452/A4601.This critical legislation will:

• Require health insurance providers to cover a range of family planning and reproductive health care services, including abortion, without any out-of-pocket costs to the patient.

• Ensures that any pregnancy-related health care services administered or funded by the state include the full range of reproductive health care services, including abortion.

• Codifies regulations related to scope of practice, ensuring that all qualified health care professionals are authorized to provide or assist in abortion care.

• Prohibits medical malpractice insurers from taking adverse actions against health care professionals for providing legally protected health care services, including abortion and gender-affirming care.

The gap in abortion access is a racial and economic justice issue. Barriers to reproductive health care reinforce structural inequities that overwhelmingly harm communities of color and undocumented community members. We must guarantee that abortion care is not just legal, but accessible and affordable for all by passing S3452/A4601.

Sincerely,

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.
