WA MPs: Vote yes to protect patients at abortion care clinics
Everyone deserves privacy and dignity when accessing healthcare.
But unfortunately in Western Australia, patients still face harassment and intimidation at abortion care clinics. In fact, patients have reported being accosted and being called "murderers", and staff have been spat on, and had holy water thrown at their cars.[1]
In just a few months the WA parliament is expected to vote on a bill that would create safe access zone protection. In other states, we’ve faced fierce opposition and attempts to water down these patient protections - so we need to make sure we have the community power to persuade every undecided member of parliament to vote yes to full safe access zone protections. Will you join the campaign?
