News Advisory:

Pro-life activists will file a federal lawsuit against the Secret Service at the Democratic Convention in Boston.

The group had been granted a permit by the City of Boston for the vigil. Activists will discuss the lawsuit at a news conference on Saturday, July 24, at 12 p.m. at the State House in Boston.

The lawsuit will be filed on Monday, July 26, at 10 a.m., at the Moakley Federal Court.

How about demanding the Secret Service adhere to the federal law that prohibits the spending of US funds in support of abortion.

That'd wake'em up!
