HR0695 - 2 - LRB104 21010 LAW 34896 r 1 Jackson Women's Health Organization decision, women in many 2 states found that their access to healthcare was suddenly 3 governed by laws that predate women's suffrage and contained 4 no exceptions for rape and incest; and 5 WHEREAS, Anti-choice politicians across the country rushed 6 to assure people that they would never deny care to survivors 7 of rape and incest; and 8 WHEREAS, In 2024, the Alabama Supreme Court used language 9 mirroring SB3572 to bar access to IVF in that state; and 10 WHEREAS, Anti-choice politicians across the country rushed 11 to assure people that they would never support laws that deny 12 access to IVF; and 13 WHEREAS, Anti-choice politicians in Illinois continue to 14 push legislation like SB3572 that would punish women for 15 accessing reproductive healthcare, would force survivors of 16 rape and incest to carry their abuser's child to term, and 17 would bar access to IVF; therefore, be it 18 RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ONE 19 HUNDRED FOURTH GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that 20 we oppose Illinois Senate Bill 3572 (SB3572); and be it 21 further HR0695 - 3 - LRB104 21010 LAW 34896 r 1 RESOLVED, That we oppose any effort to punish women for 2 accessing reproductive healthcare; and be it further 3 RESOLVED, That we oppose efforts to subject survivors of 4 rape and incest to more severe punishments than a rapist; and 5 be it further 6 RESOLVED, That we oppose efforts to restrict access to in 7 vitro fertilization (IVF) and other forms of assisted 8 reproductive technology.
