March for Life on Saturday 17th September - watch first of the promo videos ()
[link removed]
Watch and share the first ([link removed]) of the short promo videos for the upcoming March for Life taking place in Dublin in three week’s time!
The March coincides with the Government’s 3-Year Review of the abortion law nearing its end. We are asking families and supporters of all ages to join us in Dublin where we’ll 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 Ireland’s spiralling abortion rate.
The March is a really important event given that the Government's Three Year Review of the abortion law is currently underway. If you haven't already registered to attend you can do so here ([link removed]) .
For more info on the March, see www.marchforlife.ie ([link removed])

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.
You can send an instant message here ([link removed])
*The findings are contained in research conducted for BBC Radio 4
**In an answer to a Parliamentary Question from Carol Nolan TD on 3rd March 2022
