Pro-Life, America, and the Catholic Church

Pray

The pro-life movement has seen a sharp attack against polices that were in place to protect life, not destroy it.  These attack call for an increase on our efforts to defend the dignity of the human person.

January 2009 – The President allowed money to go over seas to promote and fund abortion.  He also brought to his administration the lawyer who advocated starving and dehydrating Terri Schindler Schiavo.

February 2009 – Health Care professionals lost their protection of not participating in abortion due to good consciences.

March 2009 – The ban on using tax payer money to do research on embryonic stem cell research was lifted and $50 million went to United Nations Fund

April 2009 – Pro-Life advocates were added to watch list and labeled “right-wing extremist.”

May 2009 – Abstinence only education funding was discontinued.

Since May the health care reform bill contained language advocating universal access to abortion.  Funding for embryonic stem cell research was continued in December and recently renominated a radically pro-abortion member to a top White House position.
