Arizonans Defeat HB 2696 ~ February 20, 2019

By

The AZ East Valley Pro-Life Alliance is profoundly grateful to the 600-plus pro-life Arizonans who packed the House hearing rooms last Wednesday,  February 20th  in protest of HB 2696 and to all those who contacted their legislators in opposition to this inhuman bill that sought to make infanticide legal in Arizona;  repealing AZ Fetal Resuscitation Law (ARS 36-2301).

ARS 36-2301 states:  If an abortion is performed and a human fetus or embryo is delivered alive, it is the duty of any physician performing such an abortion and any additional physicians in attendance as required by section 36-2301.01 to see that all available means and medical skills are used to promote, preserve and maintain the life of such a fetus or embryo.

On behalf of our pre-born babies we are extremely thankful to our legislators for standing for life and making us all proud to be Arizonans as we watched HB 2696 go down in defeat!

For God, Life & Liberty!

Joseph N. Perron, President                                                                                                                                                                                  AZ East Valley Pro-Life Alliance

 

New York legislature votes to legalize abortion up to birth, let non-doctors commit abortions

By

January 2019                                                                                                                                                                                    New York legislature votes to legalize abortion up to birth, let non-doctors commit abortions By Calvin Freiburger

The New York state legislature voted Tuesday, January 22nd on legislation to enshrine a “fundamental right” to abortion in state law and eliminate protections for pre-born babies until birth, set to mark the anniversary of Roe v.Wade.  The state Senate voted 38-24 in favor of the so-called “Reproductive Health Act”, the Assembly passed it 92-47.  This bill declares that “Every individual who becomes pregnant has the fundamental right to choose to carry the pregnancy to term, to give birth to a child, or to have an abortion,” erases the state’s recognition of pre-born babies older than 24 weeks as potential homicide victims, removes abortion from the penal code entirely, and allows licensed health practitioners other than full doctors to commit abortions.

‘No different than infanticide’: Pro-life leaders respond to New York legalizing abortion to birth   By Calvin Freiburger

 

Pro-Life leaders and commentators are responding with disgust, sorrow and resolve in the New York legislator’s votes Tuesday evening, January 22, to enshrine a “fundamental right” to abortion in state law and strip protections from pre-born babies until birth. Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who signed the bill, called it a “historic victory for New Yorkers and our progressive values” and ordered the One World Trade Center spire to be lit in pink to mark the occasion at the very memorial site dedicated to the thousands killed by  senseless violence and hate in celebration of the unrestricted violence of abortion that treats the unborn with more antipathy than criminals. This so-called “Reproductive Health Act” ( RHA) is an extreme bill sold to the public under the pretense it ‘updates’ New York’s law which couldn’t be further from than the truth….

New York celebrates legalizing abortion until birth by lighting One World Trade Center Pink  By Martin M. Barillas

 

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) directed that the One World Trade Center’s spire be lit pink overnight on Tuesday to celebrate his signing of a law allowing abortion until birth in some cases, and letting non-doctors commit abortions.  The law, the Reproductive Health Act, also erases the state’s recognition of pre-born babies older than 24 weeks as potential homicide victims. This bill Cuomo called an “historic victory for New Yorkers and their progressive values” was passed on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision that brought abortion on demand to every state; New York the first state to legalize abortion in 1970.  In the face of a federal government intent on rolling back Roe v. Wade and women’s reproductive rights, Cuomo promised he would enact this critical legislation within the first 30 days of the new session….

Tell Senators to pass Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act

Tell Senators to pass Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act
Friday, February 22, 2019
Next Monday night, February 25, the U.S. Senate is expected to vote on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act to protect the lives of infants who survive an abortion. Every member of the Senate ought to agree that all babies who are born deserve protection.
Senate Republican leadership must rally the entire Senate to unify in support of this bill. Passing this bill will not only protect the lives of babies who survive an abortion, but the vote will also let voters know which Democrats and Republicans refuse to protect innocent life.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is to be commended for bringing this bill up for a vote. It is troubling to know that he, however, scheduled the vote for Monday night.
Senators typically travel to D.C. on Monday for the week, and they record their attendance that evening by what is known as a “bed check” vote. Bills considered after check-in are typically viewed as low-priority votes—renaming a post office, for example.
If the vote had been delayed till next Thursday, Senate leadership, including Majority Whip John Thune (R-SD), would have had the opportunity to whip the votes during the week to build support for the bill. A Monday night vote weakens the ability of Senate leadership to leverage their majority position.
To protect babies born alive, Christians and constitutional conservatives should expect the same or greater legislative prowess that Sen. McConnell demonstrated when he fought to pass the Middle East security bill (S.1) in January.
Sen. McConnell brought this bill up for a floor vote three times (1, 2, 3) even though it kept failing to break the 60 vote threshold to proceed to a vote. McConnell kept bringing it to the floor until it passed. He and other Senate leadership kept putting the full weight of their majority position behind this bill till it passed. Surely newborn lives are worth just as much effort!
This same bill, the Born-Alive Protection Act, passed the House in September 2015, but a Senate Republican majority allowed the bill to die. Senate Republican leadership, namely Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, is responsible despite the overwhelming number of Republican senators who would have voted for the bill.
Another concerning fact is that Republicans controlled the House, Senate and White House for two years following the 2016 election yet they failed to make this a top priority. Instead, some Senate Republicans hid behind the 60 vote rule and refused to switch to a simple majority (51) votes to pass this important legislation.
This brings into question how committed these lawmakers are to the pro-life movement?
Nonetheless, it is important that all Senators go on the record regarding this important issue.

Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion business in the nation, is attempting to make abortions “fun” by having women ”shout out their abortions” as if it is something to celebrate and rejoice in.  Shoutyourabortion.com is a website dedicated to women who have had abortions and are proud of it.   Well-known celebrities like Oprah claim these pro-abort stories are “inspirational” which further attempts to make abortion seem popular and “cool”.

Pro-abortion ‘Youth Testify’ Project Promotes Abortion Stories of Teens, Young Women….                  By Calvin Freiburger

Planned Parenthood’s “Youth Testify” campaign has teens actually celebrating  their abortion to convince teens that aborting an unborn baby is no “big deal”, encouraging young people who had abortions to share their stories in various modern teen magazines.  Young adults who regret aborting their unborn babies or have had a bad experience with their abortion are definitely excluded from participating in this campaign.

Two Precious Babies Killed, Two Teens Destroyed: The Legacy of Abortion  By Shawn Carney, 40 Days for Life Campaign Director

Abortion, the root of “social violence” corrupts our entire society. The genocide of our time, abortion is a tragic and deadly act of violence that not only slays innocent life but leaves everlasting emotional scars on the mother.  It has been reported that the leading cause of deaths in America is Planned Parenthood.

                                Happy 242nd Birthday, America!
Today,  July 4th, 2018, Americans will celebrate the 242nd  Birthday of our great American nation.  As we prepare to celebrate our 242nd birthday as a free and independent nation there is no better place to start than with our founding documents.
The Declaration of Independence, which was signed 242 years ago this week, begins with these words:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.”

242 years later, we all  need to remember that from the very beginning, our nation has acknowledged that there is a CREATOR, and that He is the Source of our rights. And that we are all endowed by our Creator with the right to LIFE, LIBERTY  and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.    The Declaration of Independence states that all of this is SELF-EVIDENT, meaning any thinking person should be able to see it.

So as we prepare to celebrate America’s birthday today, let us  give thanks to our CREATOR, and to thank Him for giving us LIFE, and LIBERTY;  allowing us to pursue HAPPINESS.   It should be SELF-EVIDENT to all of us that God has given us so very much to be thankful for in the course of our lives. We live in a country where we can freely come to God in worship and where we can freely practice our Christian faith. It should be SELF-EVIDENT that it makes sense to stay close to God.

Our American Nation was founded on the Declaration of  Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. and they are still the most fundamental law of our land. Especially as we approach the elections this fall, keep in mind that our founding fathers believed in a powerful and good God, a God who gave us our most basic rights and duties, and a
God who deserves our worship and allegiance.

Perhaps reading even a section of these founding documents will help us to vote with our consciences to preserve and protect this American nation from all who would harm it from within and from outside our borders.

May God bless each one of us with SELF-EVIDENT FAITH  and may our faith be self-evident to all those around us as we live it out day by day in these United States of America.

May God Bless America and our Pro-Life President, Donald J. Trump on the
242nd Birthday of our Great Republic!
