The fight to defend life has radically changed over the past two months. The Kermit Gosnell trial put a face to late-term abortion and forced Americans everywhere to consider its depravity. Our revulsion and disgust led to the historic passage of the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act in the House, which seeks to protect unborn children and their mothers from the horrors of late-term abortion.
Would you believe that it’s been a month since the U.S. House floor was taken over by our courageous pro-life women Representatives? I’m still so proud to have witnessed those strong, pro-life women – all of whom were elected to Congress with the help of the SBA List – defend life with such conviction.
These Congresswomen understood what the fight on this bill was about, protecting women and unborn children from the excruciating pain of abortion. Whether it was Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) using a 4-D image of our own Billy Valentine’s unborn son, or the impassioned speeches on the U.S. House floor:
“Americans should be asking how different are these snipping procedures from abortions performed throughout clinics in the country. Unfortunately there’s little difference between these procedures. The practice for murdering viable unborn children who can feel pain must end.”
-Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC)
“We’re talking about human beings, human beings babies for a law long enough and development to feel touch to respond to touch. We’re talking about us.”
-Rep. Martha Roby (R-AL)
Their stand on the U.S. House floor will always remain one of the most powerful defenses of life that I’ve ever seen, and I’d like to share our video of their testimonies with you.
But, our fight isn’t over yet. We may have passed this historic legislation in the U.S. House. We may have ended late-term abortion in Texas and other states. But, we still need to get legislation introduced in the Senate, and force a vote on it.
Sign the Stop The Gosnells petition today. Let’s stand by our allies. Demand similar legislation from the U.S. Senate and force Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to let the U.S. Senate vote, so we can put every single U.S Senator on record. We have to continue the fight to outlaw monsters like Kermit Gosnell.
For life,
Marjorie Dannenfelser
President, Susan B. Anthony List
