This is nuts! Please share with everyone who knows anyone in Colorado. We’ve seen these tactics before in states like Georgia & Alabama. A ban on abortion later in pregnancy is a step to banning abortion outright. Coloradans can stop Prop 115. voteno115.com#NoOn115
The proponents of this initiative have been clear — they want to force a woman to continue a pregnancy with no exceptions for health or individual circumstances — even in cases of rape, risks to the woman’s health, or a lethal fetal diagnosis. #NoOn115
Coloradans have trusted patients, families, and physicians to make these decisions, not politicians. Democrats, Republicans, and unaffiliated voters have repeatedly rejected abortion bans at the ballot in the past. This is a fundamental CO value that crosses party lines. #NoOn115

abortion care earlier in pregnancy. Health should guide important personal, medical decisions about pregnancy — not political agendas.

This stuff ain’t easy or the most comfortable for lots of folks. It’s not always comfortable for me. I’ve been hung up on many times, sometimes I feel awkward and ridiculous making calls, but then I help someone and I know there are thousands of others doing this work with me.
There’s more at stake right now than our comfort. These calls literally can save us from four more years of Trump. Know that thousands of people are making these phone calls with you and turning out thousands more Biden votes. If you’ve resisted because you’re uncomfortable......
RV Return - We traveled out west with our son to visit our other son and his partner. Our first RV experience. Then our son abandoned us to our own devices for the return trip, but he provided chocolate cake for the journey. Back in July.
RV Return - Chocolate Cake and Oxygen. I was at high altitude in Colorado.
