Nebraskans are motivated to stand up to protect women and children from the abortion industry’s extreme proposal that would expand late-term abortion, eliminate parental notification requirements, and authorize taxpayer funding of abortion.

Voters will have a clear choice this election, and the Protect Women & Children initiative reflects our state’s commitment to provide women real care and support while protecting the lives of precious baby boys and girls.”
