Urge Gov. Roy Cooper to sign the Human Life Non-Discrimination Act/No Eugenics Bill (HB453)
Last week at our 20th Annual Day At The Capitol, Concerned Women for America of North Carolina lobbied on HB453, the Human Life Non-Discrimination Act/No Eugenics bill. The bill prohibits abortions from being sought “because of the actual or presumed race or sex of the unborn child or the presence or presumed presence of Down syndrome.”
HB453 passed the House in May with bipartisan support (six Democrats voting in favor with the Republicans). It passed the Senate last week with no Democrats voting in its favor.
The bill is now before Gov. Cooper (Democrat), who has ten days to sign the bill, veto the bill, or allow it to become law without his signature. In the case of a veto, the bill will be returned to the House, where it originated for a potential override and a three-fifths vote of the Senate and House.
Urgent Action Needed
- Contact Gov. Cooper urging him to sign HB 453. We encourage you to pray for Gov. Cooper as you are making your call or sending an email that his heart will be softened and show mercy on these pre-born children. If you are a member of Concerned Women for America of North Carolina, be sure to let him know. Phone: (919) 814-2000 | E-mail
- Forward this information to friends and family.
