Announcement: Rachel MacKenzie to address March for Life in Dublin in September ()
We are delighted to announce that Rachel MacKenzie will be one of the guest speakers at the March for Life in Dublin on Saturday 17th September.
Rachel is a well known media contributor on the abortion issue in England. She speaks with first-hand knowledge of how the abortion industry treats women and about the need for proper resources to be put in place to provide positive alternatives to abortion. She also shares her personal story about the two abortions she had and what motivates her today to be actively involved in the pro-life movement.
Last week, it was announced that Autumn Lindsey, spokesperson for Students for Life of America will also be a speaker at the upcoming march. Autumn first came to prominence in 2017 when she made a rebuttal video that was watched by millions in response to a Teen Vogue article promoting abortion. Other speakers will be announced in the coming weeks.
The march in Dublin on 17th September is the fourth in a series of regional Marches for Life hosted in 2022. It is a particularly important event as it coincides with the Governmentās 3-Year Review of the abortion law nearing its end.
In May, the Pro Life Campaign organised three very well attended regional marches in Cork, Galway and Donegal and there was the Life Instituteās Rally for Life in Dublin in July. Collectively, these gatherings were a great source of encouragement and motivation but we have to keep up the pressure.
On 17th September, we are asking families and supporters of all ages to join us outside the DĆ”il where weāll unite with pro-life Oireachtas members to demand proper representation for the pro-life viewpoint at the decision making table, to make way for policies that will help reduce Irelandās spiralling abortion rate.
The Government knows it canāt justify the exclusion of pro-life voices but itās our responsibility to bring this issue to a head and insist on being included in the decision making process so we can work towards reducing the abortion rate.
It is going to be a hard fought battle but the more we expose the lack of representation the quicker change will happen. Itās why we need to have a massive crowd at this the final pro-life march for 2022.
So please take note of the date and make every effort to be there. And please encourage your pro-life friends to do likewise. It will be a wonderful family friendly event and send a strong message to the Government. But to really pack a punch and show the strength of our commitment, we need every last pro-life supporter to be present!

World Medical Association backs freedom of conscience protections after intense debate ()
The World Medical Association (WMA) has decided to retain its position that doctors should not be āforced to participate in euthanasia or assisted suicide, nor should any physician be obliged to make referral decisions to this endā.
At a meeting in Washington DC last week where the WMA was finalising changes to the International Code of Medical Ethics (ICoME), there was intense pressure from some members to remove the right of medics to conscientiously object to having to facilitate euthanasia or assisted suicide when someone requests it.
In the end, the strong opposition at the meeting to removing freedom of conscience protections won the day. Among the groups that opposed any changes, Oxford-based Anscombe Bioethics Centre submitted an open letter to the meeting signed by over 100 doctors and medical ethicists.
If the decision had gone the other way, it would have been a setback for doctors who oppose euthanasia and assisted suicide on conscientious grounds. The World Medical Association represents 115 national medical associations and so is a very influential body.
The 2018 abortion legislation in Ireland compels doctors who donāt wish to perform abortions to nonetheless refer the woman to a doctor who will carry out the procedure. As well as trampling on the rights of healthcare workers who conscientiously object to facilitating abortion on moral grounds, it also denies doctors the right to use their clinical judgement or factor in the peer reviewed research showing that abortion increases the mental health risks to women. It is an unjust and misguided legal demand to place on doctors and itās why pressure must continue to be exerted to amend the legislation to guarantee proper freedom of conscience protections for all healthcare workers.
The decision of the WMA to respect conscientious objectors in the area of euthanasia and assisted suicide, and specifically to protect doctors from having to refer patients to a physician who will end the life, proves again that these critical ethical distinctions are well understood in medical circles. The shameful game that the Irish government plays in pretending that the law here fully protects the rights of conscientious objectors must be exposed more and more until the law is changed.

Send INSTANT ready-to-go message to your TDs asking them to urge Stephen Donnelly to immediately STOP telemedicine abortion ()
[link removed]
The Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly is expected to make a decision very soon on whether to end or sanction the continuation of telemedicine home abortions.
In a very distrubing new finding, 15% of women in the UK said they experienced pressure to go though with an abortion they didn't want to have.*
The HSE in Ireland recently acknowledged** that coercion is MORE likely to occur when abortions happen remotely.
Telemedicine abortion is anti-woman as well as anti-baby.
Take one minute to send an INSTANT message to your TDs asking them to urge the Minister for Health to immediately STOP telemedicine abortion now that Covid 19 measures have been eased in every other area.
