(TEXT OF BILL BEGINS ON NEXT PAGE)

 


Whereas, because the decision to have a child is one of the biggest economic decisions an individual can make, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to plan when and if they want to have children; and

Whereas, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to be provided with medically accurate information and quality medical care that is based on the latest medical research, training and expertise and not based on political agendas; and

Whereas, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to access affordable, comprehensive reproductive health care, regardless of one's background, employer, zip code, gender identity or sexual orientation; and

Whereas, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to access health education programs that provide reliable, accurate information needed to make responsible decisions and stay healthy; and

Whereas, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to access abortion and other confidential reproductive health care services without coercion, intimidation or harassment; and

Whereas, in cases of sexual violence, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to access compassionate health care that is delivered without delay, governmental interference or intimidation; and

Whereas, all Arizonans deserve to have the freedom and liberty to access health care services based on the medical care that is needed as opposed to the religious beliefs of others.

Therefore

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Arizona, the Senate concurring:

That the Members of the Legislature support and are dedicated to protecting women's reproductive rights.
