Make the call: urge undecided MPs to vote yes for legal abortion care

Send my email

Debate on the Government's proposed abortion law reforms starts tomorrow - the vote is expected by Thursday night.

That means we have limited time to convince undecided MPs to support these desperately needed, history-making laws, which would treat abortion care as a health matter instead of a crime.

Can you jump on the phone now to call your MP and ask them to support the Termination of Pregnancy Bill?

Taking three minutes to pick up the phone and make a call is the most effective action you can take right now to help get these laws over the line.
