Call Your Representatives
Twenty-nine Republican senators are the entire defense of Georgia's six-week ban, and every one of them is up in 2028. Governor-elect Bottoms has said she will repeal the ban at the first opportunity. A call is how a senator learns that the repeal is noticed, and who notices.
Your State Senator — the Firewall
Start here. Whether or not you agree with us on equal protection, a repeal of the six-week ban is a repeal of the only protection any pre-born child has in Georgia today. Ask for their position on repeal, and ask them to vote against it.
Sample Script
"Hello, I'm a constituent of District [X]. I'm calling about the six-week abortion ban in Georgia. I want to know whether you support repeal of that law, and I want to ask you to vote against repeal. I'm also going to ask you to support equal protection for the pre-born, because if a repeal bill comes before you, I would ask you to amend it rather than vote for it. Can you tell me where you stand?"
Your State Representative — the 2028 File
Every House seat comes up in 2028, on maps that cannot be redrawn. Your representative is one vote in that election, and their answer to you today is a record you can point to later. Ask them to support equal protection for the pre-born.
Sample Script
"Hello, I'm a constituent of District [X]. I'm calling to ask whether you support equal protection of the laws for the pre-born — legal protection from fertilization, with no exceptions. I'd like you to go on the record with your position. And I want you to know that in the May 2026 primary, a quarter of Republican primary voters in a safe district chose a candidate who ran on that position. I will be watching the vote."
Find Your Representative
You need both: your state senator for the repeal fight, your state representative for the 2028 file.

Tips for Effective Calls
- 1. Be polite but firm. You're a constituent, and they work for you.
- 2. Identify yourself and mention you are calling about equal protection for the pre-born.
- 3. Ask for their position. Don't just tell them how you feel — ask where they stand, and let them answer.
- 4. Leave your contact info if asked — name, address, phone number.
- 5. Follow up in writing. Send an email after your call to reinforce the ask.
- 6. Ask for a specific ask. "Vote against repeal." "Amend the repeal bill to equal protection." Not "please protect babies."
