Legislative Update: February 10, 2017

As you can tell from the weekly legislative update, there are many great pro-life bills this year! We are thankful for the sponsors and co-sponsors of these bills and to the House and Senate leadership and the Committee members who are moving these bills through the legislative process. The House Children and Families Committee begins hearing pro-life bills this week.

As we work to defund Planned Parenthood, end abortion and hold abortion facilities accountable for their actions we must be wise in our strategy. We are so close to ending the senseless killing of innocent babies that happens under the disguise and deceptions of abortion.

We must be very careful and intentional in our strategy to end abortion -- there are so many little innocent human lives depending on us!

Our pro-life leaders and super majorities elected in 2016 need you in Jefferson City on Tuesday, March 14 to show that you stand with them to end abortion and protect innocent human lives at every stage of development.
 
Lobby day is SO IMPORTANT!  Please, plan now to be in Jefferson City on March 14 to support your pro-life legislators.

Invite your family, friends and neighbors to come with you!

Missouri pro-lifers turned out to Walk for Life in Washington D.C. and across the United States.

Thanks, to everyone who represented Missouri at the March for Life in Washington and came out to support the Midwest March for Life in Jefferson City! We hope you have brought that enthusiasm home with you and continue to witness for goodness and life in your hometowns.

You are great people of faith! You are making a difference!

Our work together is changing hearts and minds!

Our work together in elections is giving us the power to pass pro-life laws, defund Planned Parenthood, change the direction of the U.S. Supreme Court and meet our dream of ending abortion!
