AFA of PA ACTION ALERT

Here’s How the Votes Came Down on the Equality Act and PA’s Down Syndrome Abortion Ban Act

Details

Today the US House majority — all Democrats — and eight Republicans voted to destroy girls’/women’s sports, allow boys/men in girls’/women’s bathrooms, locker and shower rooms, destroy the First Amendment and take away your religious freedom, remove all conscience protections for those in the medical field who do not want to perform abortions or so-called sex-change operations, force Christian hospitals to perform abortions and “sex change” operations, take away parental rights, force gender confusion on our children through gender inclusive sex ed, etc. etc. 

You get the picture.  And it highlights just how very important every single election is.  Voters cannot just go to the polls every four years and consider their civic duty over.  Putting someone in the White House is just part of the battle and we must understand that.  We must show up at the polls whenever it’s time to vote.  And don’t forget:  those in the 12th Congressional District will be voting on a new Congressman on Tuesday, May 21st.    Additionally, they and the rest of us will be voting for Superior Court judges too.

Here’s the rundown for PA US Representatives and their vote:

Boyle, Brendan (D) – yea
Cartwright, Matt (D) – yea
Dean, Madeleine (D) – yea
