We may not all feel the same way about abortion, but we can agree that these are private decisions. Everyone's life and circumstances are different; we must respect people's personal choices even if we wouldn't make the same decision. Measure 11 would take these profoundly personal decisions out of the hands of women and their families. We can't let this happen.

Watch Louise Melling deliver this important "Freedom Alert." Please forward it widely: Measure 11 reaches far beyond South Dakota and could take away everyone's right to make private family decisions. And be sure to visit www.sdhealthyfamilies.org for more information about what you can do to help defeat this dangerous measure.
