Time to act on the Mensch Amendment to SB 732 & SB 3

"The Pennsylvania Catholic Conference has asked its pro-life advocates to support the Mensch Amendment because the state’s abortion industry is currently exempt from commonsense safety standards that apply to other surgery centers....the Mensch Amendment creates vital additions to Senate Bill 732, and would hold abortion facilities to the same fire and safety standards, personnel and equipment requirements, and quality assurance procedures as other freestanding ambulatory surgical facilities."

As per the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference, "Senate Bill 3 would clearly prohibit taxpayer supported insurance plans from covering elective abortions in the insurance exchanges set up under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act."

With votes expected on Monday, please remind your parishioners of how essential it is for them to call their state senators - especially Senator Chuck McIlhinney - to urge the senators to vote "Yes" on the Mensch Amendment to Senate Bill 732. and "Yes" on Senate Bill 3. They should also contact Gov. Corbett, urging him to support strict abortion facility regulations.
