Stop harassment at WA clinics

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?

"The issues surrounding the decision to proceed with abortion are always complex and unhappy. How ever it is for the woman involved to make that decision for herself. It is not the business of anyone else to tell her what she may or may not do. An unwanted pregnancy is likely to lead to an unwanted child. That is a tragedy greater than the abortion."

"I was abused by these animals 40 years ago….my husband told them he was going to the dentist and they backed off…not the brightest sparks? I had someone to protect me, but it was an ordeal."

"For most women choosing to abort is difficult enough as it. The last thing a woman ought to face when going through the process is s bunch of fanatical right to lifers. If this is the case safe zones are essential. In fact laws need to be changed and decent clinics available for women who make this difficult choice"
