It was obvious Democrats could not stop a 6-week abortion ban from passing the Florida Senate Monday.

Instead of making a last-ditch plea to stop the bill, Democratic Sen. Lauren Book spoke directly to the women who will be affected, even going so far as reading her phone number aloud on the Senate floor, NBC6 reported

“Please don’t take matters into your own hands. Do not put your safety at risk. No back-alley abortions. There are people and funds that will help you. No matter where you live, no matter how desperate of a situation you are in, no matter how helpless it may seem. I promise, you are not alone. Call my office,” Book said.

The proposed law will ban most abortions at 6 weeks, with exceptions for women facing life-threatening harm during pregnancy. It also includes exemptions for victims of rape,
