Were you there on the phone Thursday night -- with hundreds of other pro-life leaders from around the country -- when history was made on the "Emergency South Dakota Briefing" call?

Top national pro-life leaders joined me on the phone to share the latest news, discuss the urgent needs to help South Dakota protect its abortion ban, and detail the sweeping national implications of what is happening RIGHT NOW.

We heard stirring calls to action from...

>> JANET FOLGER, President of Faith2Action

>> JUDIE BROWN, President of American Life League

>> GIANNA JESSEN, abortion survivor

>> FR. FRANK PAVONE, National Director of Priests for Life

>> MOLLY WHITE, Director of Redeemed for Life

>> JIM SEDLAK, Executive Director of STOPP International

>> AND MORE!!

If you got a busy signal, weren't able to get on the line, or just want to re-listen to the call again, you are in luck!

The entire call was recorded and was just posted in its entirety online. For instant access, go to:

All we ask is that you help spread the word to other pro-life leaders across America so they can listen in on this vital discussion! Just send them an email encouraging them to visit:

I was up very late Thursday night because of this very issue - e-mailing every one I know. See my FR page for evidence. So far I've donated $125 - and expect to put in more.

PING - Time to fight!!!

PING

This is not explicitly theological.

This is VERY IMPORTANT however. Every Christian needs to stand up in support of our brothers and sisters in South Dakota.

A passage I hope each of you will take a moment to meditate upon is Proverbs 24:11;12:

11 Rescue those who are being led away to death! Indeed, hold back those who are staggering to the slaughter!

12 If you say, "Behold, we didn't know this;" doesn't he who weighs the hearts consider it? He who keeps your soul, doesn't he know it? Shall he not render to every man according to his work?

Listen to the MP3! E-mail every pro-life person you know! If you or they know families in South Dakota, e-mail them!

South Dakotans are pro-life. WE CAN WIN THIS! The time to act is NOW!

Thank you so much for the ping!

From the MP3: Polling in late July had 47% voting NO and 39% voting YES, 14% undecided.

Latest polling has it in a statistical deadheat. WE CAN WIN THIS!!! but it's going to take help from Americans from all 50 states. REMEMBER: VoteYesForLife DOES NOT need to match Planned Parenthood's $8 Million... but they still need our help.

[Lexinom]

Ping to #9 - statistical dead-heat in latest poll! Can you contact your friends? Is this important enough? The message has to get out, and they need grassroots money.

The MP3 is very inspiring, I have it playing now. Highly recommend.

What's the gist?

What kind of immediate support from around the country/world do you need?

Who supports planned parenthood and How does Planned Parenthood get the money to lobby.   The pro-life republicans, that's who.  They vote "yea" for Title X funding every year giving Planned Parenthood $1/4 billion yearly and giving crisis pregnancy centers $0.   And they call themselves pro-life Christians, and we believe them.

 

Yeas  206 of them voted YES and they claim to be pro life, click "yeas" or the link below.

 

Who supports and Funds Planned Parenthood every single year?   Why, it's none other than your self-proclaimed, pro-life Catholic and Born Again Christian congressman, that's who.  Every year, they vote to fund planned parenthood $250,000,000 per year and $0 to crisis pregnancy centers, more than the Clinton administration, and will continue to do so until we do something about it. Signed by the POTUS every year.  Thank you to Congressman Tom Tancredo and Ron Paul, et. al. for voting NO  Sign the petition and write your congressman and Speaker Hastert.

 

America Must Stand With South Dakota

we must stand with South Dakota because the National Right to Life did NOT:

The National Right to Life worked with NARAL & NOW AGAINST South Dakota's anti-abortion Bill

National Right to Life accused of complicity with the other side

Pro-life groups divide over abortion ban

Here's the situation. After a year of diligent work with the Thomas More Law Center, South Dakota constructed an abortion bad designed to withstand a court challenge and meet Justice Blackmun's criteria for overturning Roe, the South Dakota Legislature passed the ban.

A clause in South Dakota's State Constitution has provision allowing voters a window of time to file a petition on legislation to present it to the electorate for approval. Needless to say, Planned Parenthood did exactly that using out-of-state resources (as a footnote, there are numerous allegations of petition fraud currently under investigation).

The abortion ban will be on the ballot. 12 other states have similar legislation but are waiting to see what happens in South Dakota. That is one reason this is so critical that this passes.

South Dakotans are pro-life. However, Planned Parenthood with its cash juggernaut has put together a massive "shock and awe" campaign of misinformation. Some funds are needed by VoteYesForLife to counter this - probably not $8 Million given voters' already-pro-life disposition, but still something.

Right now, the polling has it in a statistical dead-heat - after the ban was down %47 - %39 in late July. WE CAN WIN THIS! We ALL have to play a role - Americans from all 50 states must stand up as this may be the only chance of our lifetimes to overturn Roe v. Wade - the outcome will have a domino effect. Are you with us?

"After sitting though waiting rooms and what not, I had changed my mind. This was not for me. This was not what I wanted to do. I told the nurse there that I do not want to have an abortion. She proceeded walking me towards the procedure room, and told me, let's talk to the doctor. They sat me down in a chair. As they did, she was sticking me with in the arm with a needle, and when I woke up, I had had an abortion. Before I left there, a nurse then asked me if there was anything she could get for me. I said is it done. She told me yes that it was. I said, 'well yes ma'am, you can get me a gun.' I could not bear to walk out of there."

I don't understand what the Emergency South Dakota Briefing is but I take it the Vote Yes for Life is the site to donate to, yes?

[Lexinom]

Yes, that is correct!

The reason this is important is because of its national implications - twelve other states have pending legislation, the polling on the issue is a statistical tie, and the outcome will have a domino effect on those other twelve states. If it passes, they will likely move ahead. If it fails, it could be another decade or more before we can mount the momentum to try again.

This is the biggest chance for weakening Roe since 1989, and the first time EVER voters will have a say.

Bump! Listening now. Thanks so much for the ping and all the info. A great many of us have been following the news on, and praying for, what is happening in SD!
