SB 46 - Removing Womens' Rights to Privacy - Up on Senate Floor Today!

SB 46 on Senate Floor Today - Contact your Senator!!

After a similar CI-100 ballot initiative was not supported by Montanans last year, Senator McGee, (R- Laurel) is sponsoring SB 46, which amends the MT Constitution, eliminating privacy protections that have been in place for nearly 40 years by stating that the unborn life is a “compelling state interest.”

This would authorize governmental intrusion into every pregnancy and undermine private medical decisions made between a woman and her doctor. Besides attempting to ban abortion, SB 46 and ignores the complex medical decision-making process for women with high risk pregnancies. Access to emergency contraception, in vitro fertilization, and birth control will all be jeopardized. 

This bill has made it out of committee and is on the Senate Floor today! Contact your Senator!
