What Now? A Post-Roe Discussion w/Democratic Lawmakers
With all the confusion around the recent Supreme Court decision and the subsequent trigger ban signed into law, there are a lot of questions about what this means for Missouri residents.
Join us Thursday, July 28th at Wallace Park in Belton for a Post-Roe discussion with Missouri State Representatives Patty Lewis and Emily Weber. They'll discuss the current state of reproductive healthcare access in Missouri, answer questions, and show us how to take action and take back our rights here in the Show Me State.
Come early at 6:00 PM, bring your favorite finger food, we'll supply the beverages. Reps Lewis & Weber will be leading our post-Roe discussion at 7:00pm.
Don't forget to bring your July Community Service donations benefitting the Raymore and Harrisonville animal shelters. See the shelter needs, below.
We'll have a brief meeting following our discussion regarding upcoming events and volunteer needs.
