The Willfully or Unwillfilly Ignorant Don't Ask for Answers; Those Who Question Get Ignored; The Ignored Become the Willfully Ignorant

Hi Representative Slezak,

I don't live in your district. In fact, I live in Wisconsin. However, we are neighbors, and I thought it important for you to know that banning abortions does not save the lives of the unborn children women seeking abortions did not plan to have. Statistically, scientifically, and IMPORTANTLY, it has been shown that abortion bans do not do anything to save the fetuses you are clearly so concerned about, but rather result in dead women. I am not sure if you just specifically disdain women, or if you think your own personal beliefs should be permitted to shape and destroy the lives of others, or if you are just looking for a way to dramatically improve the unemployment rate in Michigan by killing women who seek abortions (as they are primarily low-income women) but you need to rescind this proposal. You need to take this off the table of consideration, and then you need to apologize for presenting it. After that, you need to work on issues that are effecting the people you represent every day, such as creating new and sustainable jobs and making sure all of your constituents have adequate health care. In this way, you could demonstrate to the American people that you actually give a damn about people, even after they are born.

Truly,
