Editor’s note: Today’s post is by Phil. Earlier this week, I took part in some of the mass protests against Leroy Carhart’s new late-term abortion mill in Germantown, Maryland. So far, it’s a successful protest; Carhart closed for the entire week and has been getting a lot of negative publicity outing him as a late-term […]
Happy August. I’ve just got two quick bullet points out of Kansas as my news items for today. Kansas has become a bevy of pro-life action this year. Here’s two recent action items: The Attorney General Derek Schmidt (R) has announced that Kansas will appeal a federal judge ruling preventing the state of defunding Planned […]
The end of summer will be here before we know it, and our many student members will be heading back to school. What ideas do you have for spreading the pro-life message this semester?
Dubuque County Right to Life is participating in a contest to win an office makeover valued at $15,000. DCRTL is a non-partisan, non-sectarian voice for life in Iowa, where telemed abortion poses a major threat to unborn children. From DCRTL’s email: This is a great opportunity for us, as you know firsthand the time it […]
This morning I had the honor of joining a group of college-age young people outside of Doctor Kung’s abortion clinic in San Diego. It was wonderful to see 17 year old twins, Jarah and Jerial Burke, organize a group of students to sidewalk counsel and hold signs outside of the abortion clinic so early in […]
The National Right to Life Committee and NARAL Pro-Choice America have each released reports on the Republican field of presidential candidates. They agree that all of the most prominent candidates oppose abortion. It appears that pro-life groups have mostly forgiven Romney’s earlier opposition to prenatal rights– and that his former pro-choice supporters have officially bailed […]
Domestic News: In North Carolina, the state House voted to override the veto of Governor Bev Perdue (D) who vetoed a measure to require a waiting period before an abortion. The override now goes to the NC Senate, leaders of which seem to think they have the votes. South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley (R) […]
The Minnesota Department of Health just announced the state’s 2010 abortion statistics. Abortions dropped 7% from 2009. This is the fourth straight year of decline, and the lowest number of abortions since the mid-1970s! The decline is unusual, because the state’s population has grown considerably since 1975. In addition, we would expect the number of […]
Two pro-life victories to bring to your attention today! An Orlando jury held that late-term abortionist James Pendergraft must pay $36 million to the victim of a botched abortion. The baby girl he attempted to kill is now ten years old; she suffers from cerebral palsy and other serious health problems as a result of […]
Jill Stanek just closed a poll on the question “What needs to happen first for the pro-life movement to acheive its goal of stopping abortion?” I thought the results were pretty interesting. The most popular answer, by far, was “Change public opinion on abortion,” at 36.6%. My own pick was “Get more media supporting the […]
