Ask Gov. DeSantis to VETO these 3 very bad bills & then share on social media!

We need you to call Governor DeSantis TODAY at (850) 717-9337 and ask him to VETO HB 5, HB 7, and SB 1796.

HB 5 is the 15-Week Abortion Ban, HB 7 is the "Don't Say Gay Bill," and SB 1796 is the extra bad No-Alimony & 50/50 Child Custody bill.

Now, I know what you're probably thinking. That Gov. DeSantis is not going to veto any of these bad bills that have passed the legislature, so why even bother. The answer is that the size of our dissent will be the measure of how hard similar extremist measures are pushed next year. Such as a 6-week Abortion Ban or further restrictions on LGBTQIAX+ rights.

"We must not go quietly into the night."

After you call, please share these posts to your social media to ask your friends to do the same.

1. Veto the Abortion Ban - aka HB 5

Sample social media post—

With Gov. DeSantis constantly harping on personal freedom, it would be hypocritical for him to allow government to get between patients and their doctors. As a freedom crusader, how can he support government dictating what can and cannot happen when making personal medical decisions? Call his office now to urge a veto on the abortion ban bill: 850-717-9337 #BansOffOurBodiesFL
