STOP
House Bill 2467
A
Repeal of the Parental Notice of Abortion Act
An
attack on Illinois Families
If HB2467 becomes law it would repeal the Parental
Notification of Abortion Act of 1995.
The Act:
-Is
constitutional per the Illinois Supreme Court and the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals
-Mandates
notification of a parent, grandparent or legal guardian
when a minor seeks an abortion
-Provides
a judicial waiver of notice for minors that are victims of physical or sexual abuse
-Has
caused a decline in minor abortions by 55% from 2013 when first enforced to 2017 according to the Illinois Department of Public Health statistics (adults declined 15%)
-Has not triggered any reported
incidents of abuse or neglect of a minor as a result of notification to the
minor’s parent.
The Moms and Dads in Illinois do
not deserve to have their parental rights undermined by their government.
Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana
and Kentucky all have parental involvement
laws. If the Parental Notification Act
of 1995 is repealed Illinois will become the Midwest go-to-state for minors to
obtain a secret abortion.
