If you want to know more about November's Amendment 3 and the "pro-life" groups pushing it, watch Dr. Poppy Daniels, Jennifer Barker of ICHM, and myself discuss the issues.
From Dr. Poppy's channel:
"Pro-life Missourians are being told to vote YES on Amendment 3. Pro-choice Missourians are being told to vote NO. That should make every voter stop and read the fine print.
On this episode of The Dr. Poppy Show, Dr. Poppy, a pro-life OB-GYN for 23 years, sits down with Jennifer Ann Barker of Informed Health Choice Missouri and Gretchen Garrity, journalist and writer of the Right to Win Ozarks blog. Here’s what we covered:
-What Amendment 3 (HJR 73) actually allows, including exceptions for rape and incest up to 12 weeks
-Why the fetal anomaly and medical emergency exceptions have NO gestational limit
-The transgender surgery ban that’s already in Missouri law (and why it’s on the ballot anyway)
-Why the amendment does nothing about mail-order abortion pills, which make up close to 70% of abortions
-What a real medical emergency looks like, from an OB who has practiced for 23 years -Why a personhood bill never got a full Senate vote
-Who is funding the push for Amendment 3 This isn’t a conversation backed by a PAC or a politician.
It’s three women who have done the reading, explaining what’s in the five pages most voters will never see on their ballot. Read the legislation yourself before November. Search “HJR 73 Missouri 2025” or visit sos.mo.gov."
