The State Senate Medical Affairs Subcommittee hearing the Heartbeat Bill (H3020) has extended the deadline to Tuesday October 8, 2019, to receive written testimony.

If you have not submitted written testimony or if you know someone, especially a medical professional, who wants to submit written testimony in favor of passing the Heartbeat Bill, you have until Tuesday October 8, 2019.

Here is the text of the e-mail I received from Gene Hogan, the Medical Affairs research director:
