Defending the lives of mothers and their babies by defeating the extreme late-term abortion amendment in South Dakota.

Vote NO on G. It's too extreme. https://t.co/9fNzLpPPKG

What do South Dakotans think about Amendment G? Is it too extreme? We went around and asked South Dakotans their thoughts. Here’s what they said! #VoteNOonG

[Life Defense Fund @LifeDefenseFund]

Former SD abortion doc: "I did abortions under Roe, and we still had protections for women, we had parental notification, waiting period, clinic and provider standards, dozens of regulations that would protect women, but under Amendment G, all these protections would be gone."

An association of obstetricians and gynecologists met today in the nation’s capital to discuss what they consider to be a threat to women’s health, abortion. https://t.co/UsQ0Jl5bXk

"ANTIFA-STYLE HARASSMENT": Pro-abortion agitators doxxed pro-lifers and used deceit, physical threats. and verbal abuse amid a radical ballot initiative allowing abortion up to birth. https://t.co/anZiVapdgy

“Of course I’m going to be voting NO on the extreme Amendment G, and I will be encouraging others to do the same.” -Governor Kristi Noem

Senator Thune opposes Amendment G! Amendment G would legalize late-term abortion through all 9 months of pregnancy, strip parents rights to know if their minor daughter is undergoing an abortion, and remove health and safety protections for women. It’s too extreme. Vote NO on G!

[Doctors for Dakotans @docs4dakotans]

Join us in opposing Amendment G, a dangerous proposal that endangers South Dakota women. Vote NO this November.

We’re thrilled Senator Rounds has voiced his opposition on the radical abortion measure Amendment G. He’s right that this measure is too extreme and too dangerous - and that we must protect mothers and children in South Dakota. We’re thankful for his leadership on this.

[Mike Rounds @RoundsforSenate]

I’m pro life and will vote “no” on Amendment G.

First and foremost, I believe that life begins at conception and our obligation is to save lives. That includes both the mother and child.

Amendment G goes too far by including legal abortions through the third trimester. This extreme measure does not belong in the South Dakota Constitution. Please vote no.

[Life Defense Fund @LifeDefenseFund]

"Amendment G allows abortion until birth, removes health and safety measures for women, and cuts parents out of the equation if their daughter is being forced or coerced into an abortion.”

[Doctors for Dakotans @docs4dakotans]

READ Dr. Patti Giebink’s reaction to a report that a pregnant South Dakota woman underwent a botched surgical procedure. If Amendment G is advanced, tragic stories like this will become commonplace in South Dakota. VOTE NO ON G.

[Life Defense Fund @LifeDefenseFund]

Doctors and nurses know the truth: Extreme Amendment G is BAD for women and BAD for South Dakota.

[AAPLOG Action @AAPLOG_Action]

1/8 Rick Wieland @DakotansforHealth recently penned an op-ed @thedakotascout about Extreme Amendment G. On behalf of the 7,000+ medical professionals of AAPLOG, we’re here to set things straight: Extreme Amendment G is BAD for women and BAD for South Dakota. 🧵🧵🧵

NEW POLL: The majority of South Dakota women OPPOSE the abortion up-to-birth amendment, according to a survey conducted by SD News Watch and the Chiesman Center for Democracy. Overall, the poll also found the amendment does not have the support of the majority of South Dakotans.

[Life Defense Fund @LifeDefenseFund]

POLL: “Majority of South Dakotans do not support the extreme abortion amendment, including the majority of women who have decided to oppose it.”

“The more people learn about the actual impacts of the extreme Abortion Amendment, the more they reject it.”

Soliciting signatures to legalize abortion next to a coffin with a human skull in hand.

The petitioners brazenly want the death of unborn children—even willing to put mothers’ lives in danger by banning all safety requirements for most abortions.

Decline to sign.

Thank you to the over 140 pastors and community leaders who attended the pastors lunch yesterday co-hosted by Bishop DeGrood and President Sailer. The meeting was full of info about the abortion amendment and powerful testimonies about the devastating consequences of abortion.

[SBA Pro-Life America @sbaprolife]

Abortion activists in South Dakota are lying about their proposed amendment — if it passes it would:

1. Eviscerate parental rights
2. Eliminate health & safety standards
3. Allow painful late-term abortions

[Kelsey Pritchard @kelsey_pritch]

Abortion radicals are attempting to lie their way to the ballot in South Dakota. Thank you, AG Jackley, for providing clarity on how extreme this amendment truly is.
