** MORE THAN 8,000 BABIES SAVED IN 2023
------------------------------------------------------------

The official data is finally out. The Georgia Department of Public Health has released the 2023 abortion data for Georgia. According to DPH

8.208 more babies will see (or have already seen!) their first birthday this year!

While abortions are up across the United States, in Georgia, since Roe v. Wade was overturned and Georgia’s Heartbeat Bill went into effect, abortions have slowly decreased.

Georgia’s pro-life, pro-family, pro-woman laws are saving lives, helping women, and building families. Over this time period, two abortion clinics have closed!

We have much to celebrate and be thankful for 🎉

We are nowhere near safe, legal, and rare.
* Over 30,000 abortions per year means 85 lives are intentionally taken every single day. That is heartbreaking.
* Georgia is one of the 15 states with the most abortions. ([link removed])
* Chemical abortion is on the rise. In 2023, DPH reported to GLA that 83.5% of abortions are caused by the abortion pill regimen. That’s an increase of 27% from 2022. Georgia surpasses the national rate of chemical abortion by a full 20 points higher than the national average of 63%.
+ Tragically we have recently learned that two Georgia women died within days of taking the abortion pill regimen. ([link removed])
* Abortions in the Black community comprise 66% of all abortions in Georgia.
* Legal challenges continue against Georgia’s LIFE Act. ([link removed])

Abortion is on the ballot, the Gender Gap is real.

Election Day is exactly one week from today. We have 4 days remaining to vote this week + Election Day.

Millions of dollars have poured into Georgia to convince voters that abortion is healthcare and some sort of right that is only for women to choose life or death.

Each dollar spent by the abortion cartel is being used to influence our elections and prop up pro-abortion candidates. Their goal is to elect pro-abortion, anti-family, anti-child, candidates who will subvert our laws, your rights as parents, and eliminate the resources women need to choose life.

Pro-Life, Pro-Family, Women need to get out and vote!

Per the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Opinion Page columnist ([link removed]) :

“The latest AJC poll showed Trump with a huge lead over Harris among men in Georgia, 59% to 28%, while Harris holds a massive lead among women, 55% to 37%.” Patricia Murphy

Georgia has the most pro-family, pro-life, pro-education, pro-woman legislature in the history of the state. Since 2018, in addition to the LIFE Act, the Georgia General Assembly has:
