Sample script:

 “Hello, my name is ______and I live in ___________.  I urge you to oppose the Equality Actfor the following reasons (use any or all of the talking points): 

• The Equality Act would likely force taxpayers to fund elective abortions because of the way it redefines “sex” discrimination;
• It would likely force doctors and hospitals to perform abortions even if it's against their conscience or beliefs;
• It would likely require all employers with more than 14 employees - even religious organizations-to cover abortions in their health insurance plans;
• It would force vulnerable and, sometimes traumatized girls and women, in shelters or social service programs to share sleeping space, showers, and other spaces with men or be shut down;
• Women's prisons could be open to men who self-identify as women;
• It would shut down Catholic foster care and adoption agencies which have helped children in need for over a century without discrimination, just for protecting the children's right to be in a home with a married mother and father.
