Every Mother Matters

Friends,

Today I filed the "Every Mother Matters Act" or EMMA, Senate Bill 802. I am grateful to Senators Paul Bettencourt, Donna Campbell, M.D., Bob Hall, Bryan Hughes, Eddie Lucio, and Charles Perry for joint-authoring this bill with me.

I believe this bill provides the foundation for one of the most important things that we, as a society, can do to support women who are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. EMMA expands upon information currently required to be provided to women seeking an abortion by matching them with local and state resources that can provide for specific socioeconomic and family needs. Additionally, EMMA provides a screening for family violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking to ensure the woman is not a victim of these crimes.

I am passionate about helping women understand their options and being an advocate for every human life. Please take a moment to watch the video below to hear more about this incredible bill and why I believe that every mother matters

Thank you for your continued encouragement and prayers.
