Dear Friend --
Today is a major victory for
unborn children and their mothers.
It is a day we
have long prayed and worked for: Roe v. Wade is officially
overturned. Let the magnitude of this moment sink
in.
Praise the LORD!
Lives are now
being protected in Mississippi and in other states around the country
as a result of the Supreme Court’s decision. In North
Carolina, our work is only beginning.
Our laws should
recognize that life is a human right. Because of modern medicine and
science, we now know that unborn babies have a heartbeat
at about six weeks, and by
fifteen weeks they have fully formed noses, lips
and eyebrows, suck their thumbs, and they feel pain. It
is time for the law to catch up with the science and modernize our
laws.
Our lawmakers now have an opportunity to protect lives
and ensure women and families are supported. Members of our General
Assembly in particular must ensure that unborn children and their
mothers are protected from the gruesome reality of abortion, and that
they receive the care and resources they need to flourish.
As
we shared with you last week, Democrats in our state legislature just
introduced a bill that supports abortion on-demand up until the moment
of birth. These same politicians support taxpayer funding of abortion
and even infanticide. They are way out of step with the North Carolina
people, who support severely limiting abortion because they recognize
that life is a human right.
Instead of distant judges, it is
now up to states like ours to determine whether they will protect
babies in the womb. It’s time North Carolina recognized the humanity
of the unborn, and we invite you to join us in leading the charge to
help make that happen in this state. If you believe #LifeIsAHumanRight, and support our work
championing your pro-life values in our state, would you consider
making a $25, $50, $100, or more donation
today?
