What's the gist?

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

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?
