Dear John,
Since the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision on June 24 finally overturned Roe v. Wade, we now have new freedom to build a culture of life and advance pro-life policies from coast to coast.
Yet, pro-abortion activists have continued what they call a "Summer of Rage."
It began weeks before the Supreme Court's decision was announced with pro-life nonprofits being vandalized across the nation. Though mainstream media barely mentioned it, some have even been firebombed!
In early June, volunteer staff at Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center arrived to find their front door splattered in bright, blood-red paint. The words "JANE SAYS REVENGE" were spray-painted on the side.
In the first 7 days after the ruling was released, more than 25 new attacks of lawlessness and violence occurred at churches and pregnancy resource centers.
Our friends at these centers across the U.S. shouldn't have to be traumatized in their important work--as they provide compassionate counsel and distribute diapers, baby clothes, and supplies to moms who contact them for help.
Mary Szoch, director of FRC's Center for Human Dignity, pointed out the obvious contradiction. "The pro-abortionists' claims that the Dobbs decision is what will harm women rings hollow. They are the ones attempting to close organizations that are willing to walk with women through the entirety of pregnancy and parenting."
At FRC, we're working closely with life-affirming organizations to help our friends on the front lines of saving lives. In states across the country, we're also ready to take principled, effective action--building upon this historic opportunity to advance a culture of life.
Will you join FRC in seizing this moment by responding with your best gift today?

Why such urgency? Because we cannot underestimate the lengths to which the abortion lobby, activists, and allies in government will go to keep grisly abortion practices going.
But truth is on our side. This pro-life Dobbs decision has shown that the determined, dedicated efforts of thousands of pro-life advocates can shift the courts and our culture.
FRC has the infrastructure and materials to do it:
- Decades of relationships with pastors and churches nationwide;
- New printed and online materials by our team of experts, informing believers on how to think biblically about these issues and how to communicate truth with their family, friends, and neighbors;
- Close partnerships with state and local conservative policy groups who stand as allies to pro-life pregnancy resource centers.
We're praying that God will increase our effectiveness and use these efforts for His purposes. And we believe action is part of our prayerful stance.
We need your help to do it! Would you prayerfully consider giving a tax-deductible gift towards FRC's work of inspiring believers to stand for truth and righteousness?
DONATE NOW
Many thought that overturning Roe was impossible. That it was "settled law."
Consider the past 49 years of faithful advocacy at the March for Life. Alongside many allies of diverse backgrounds and faith affiliations, FRC has worked to educate legislators on pro-life policies--even as we inspire local advocates to support pregnancy resource centers.
We've taken action and made the case for life because we knew it was the right thing to do . . . and we believed that the truth about the value of every life would win out.
Now the whole world sees with their own eyes what we knew by faith was possible.
Think about what seems insurmountable to you right now; the thing that tempts you to be discouraged. Is it LGBT indoctrination in schools? Declining orthodox Christianity and understanding of our nation's faith heritage? Cancel culture silencing biblical viewpoints?
As on matters of life, we believe a faithful, winsome stand really can change hearts and minds. No matter the outcome or how long it takes, we are to be faithful witnesses to the truth.
This life-saving majority decision from the Supreme Court gives me new hope for "America the Beautiful." Thank you for standing with us for faith, family, and freedom.
