Here are some key messaging guidelines for testimony opposing AB 411:

Focus on Women’s Health & Safety Risks

• AB 411 removes critical safeguards that protect women in medical emergencies.
• Without a prescribing doctor’s name, emergency providers lose vital information, delaying life-saving care.
• The abortion pill is high-risk, with 1 in 25 women requiring emergency medical intervention—this bill ignores that danger.
• No other prescription drug strips away doctor accountability—women deserve the same protections as all patients.

Call Out Doctor Protection Over Patient Safety

• AB 411 prioritizes immunity for doctors, protecting them from liability instead of ensuring proper medical oversight.
• Doctors prescribing abortion pills should be held accountable for follow-ups, complications, and misuse.
• This bill shields doctors while leaving women unprotected in critical situations.

Highlight Emergency Medical Concerns

• During a crisis, every second matters—AB 411 makes it harder for emergency providers to act quickly.

• Incorrect use of abortion pills has already led to maternal deaths—removing safeguards puts more women at risk.
• Emergency responders rely on prescription labels—AB 411 eliminates key medical information that can save lives.

Demand Lawmakers Protect Women, Not Doctors

• Women’s health must come first—AB 411 strips away essential protections.
• Rejecting AB 411 is the only way to ensure women aren’t left to suffer due to lack of oversight.
• Tell lawmakers to vote NO on this dangerous bill and stand up for women’s safety.
