Urge Congress to End Infanticide TODAY!

 
Infanticide in America must end.

Yes, infanticide is happening in America. To stop it, Congress must
pass The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act (HR 619)
authored by Rep. Ann Wagner (MO-2).

The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act ensures that any
infant who survives a botched abortion is given life-saving medical
care. Unfortunately, such care is not required by law.

Babies do survive late-term abortions. In just the five states that
report on this (Florida, Michigan, Arizona, Minnesota, and Oklahoma),
25 babies survived abortion attempts in 2017-indicating that the
number of abortion survivors nationally could be between 150 and 200
per year.

Can you imagine that a precious baby who miraculously survives a
brutal abortion is given no medical attention? These
"unwanted" babies are "being left to die in a utility
closet."  They are left to die from neglect on abortion
tables, or killed by other means.

If the scourge of abortion were not bad enough already, our
nation's laws further devalue life by permitting babies born
alive to die for lack of basic medical care. Infanticide is as
appalling as human nature can possibly be. Born alive infant
protection bills have passed the House twice in previous years and
once in the Senate. Surely ALL members of Congress can oppose the
killing of a baby after birth.

But Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) refuses to allow a vote on HR 619.
Thankfully, House Republican leadership has a solution: a discharge
petition. With at least 218 signatures (the majority of the U.S.
House) on a discharge petition, House Members can bypass Speaker
Pelosi and force a vote on HR 619.

On Wednesday, one of the 31 new pro-life women Members of Congress
Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL), bill author Rep. Ann Wagner (R-MO), and
Republican Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) are expected to file the
discharge petition on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection
Act.  Now, we need your help to get at least 218 Members of
Congress to sign the  petition and bring HR 619 to a vote.

How can you help?

To end the killing of abortion survivors, please send a message to
your representative asking them to sign the discharge petition

Your representative needs to hear from you on this matter - tell
them we must ensure the law protects ALL newborn children in our
nation.

P.S. Your voice makes a difference!
Last year, you helped gather 205 signatures - including every
Republican and 3 Democrat Members - on the Born Alive Survivors
Protection Act discharge petition. This year, with 211 current
pro-life members in Congress, plus two more who will be sworn in soon,
we are closer than ever to a victory on this issue!
