Talking Points:

Please vote YES on SB 251!

• Overwhelming evidence was presented in the committee hearing that preborn babies at 20 weeks can feel pain. It is barbaric to subject a child to the brutal dismemberment process of abortion. This is exactly what SB 251 would prevent.
• Delaware law already recognizes the humanity of the preborn baby at 20 weeks (SB 3, 2017, “Lorenzo’s Law). It is unethical to kill an innocent human being, which is what an abortion at 20 weeks is under current Delaware law. 

Abortion at 20 weeks is inhumane and barbaric. Please ban this practice in Delaware and support SB 251.

Please vote YES on SB 252!

• Last session, the Delaware Senate targeted pregnancy care centers under the false pretense that those centers give misleading information to women (SB 300, 2024). If our Senators truly care about women being fully informed, then SB 252 is a no-brainer bill to support.

• SB 252 is not forcing anything on women; ultrasounds are already used in abortion procedures. It is simply ensuring that women are fully informed of the option to see the ultrasound and hear the heartbeat, and to use that option if she chooses.

• What would be the motivation for voting against SB 252? What reason would there be to not protect a woman’s right to have all of the information available presented to her when considering an abortion, if she so chooses? 

It only makes sense to support a woman’s right to know. Please vote yes on SB 252.
