South Dakota abortion law uses false information



South Dakota wants doctors to lie to women seeking abortion by forcing doctors to inform women that having an abortion increases their risk of suicide. As one of my family members committed suicide, I find this law to be not only demeaning to a woman's choice regarding pregnancy, but to the very real problem of suicide. The law is based on faulty, misrepresented information and is merely fear-mongering on the part of the lawmakers.

That's why I signed a petition to US Supreme Court, The South Dakota State House, The South Dakota State Senate, and Governor Dennis Daugaard, which says:

"Stop using lies and fear to attempt to control women's rights and women's health issues."
