Abortion is illegal in Michigan, except to save the life of the mother. Our states legal protections for children in the womb are not enforced, however, because of the U.S. Supreme Courts decision in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton.
What is the key to restoring our law? Overturning Roe. What is the key to overturning Roe? We need one, perhaps two more fair justices on the U.S. Supreme Court who recognize that the U.S. Constitution doesnt mention abortion. How do we get those justices on the Court?
You can start by voting for John James in the U.S. Senate Republican primary on August 7!
We have a prolife president in Donald Trump willing to appoint honest justices like Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court. Three pro-abortion Supreme Court justices are ages 79 and over, meaning several court vacancies are likely in the near future. Nominees to the Supreme Court have to be approved by the U.S. Senate, and Michigan voters have an excellent opportunity to play a role in that process via the 2018 election.
Currently there are at most 48 votes in the U.S. Senate for prolife legislation. Last year Justice Neil Gorsuch was approved by 54 votes. The margin of error is small. Senator Debbie Stabenow consistently votes against prolife legislation and fair judicial nominees.
She will face the winner of the Republican Senate Primary in November. Who will her opponent be?
There are two candidates running in the Republican Senate Primary: John James and Sandy Pensler. The Right to Life of Michigan Political Action Committee has endorsed John James as the only 100-percent prolife candidate in the race.
James has served as the president of his familys Detroit-area business since 2012. James Group International is in the logistics and transportation industry.
Prior to his business management experience, James served our country for eight years. James service began at West Point. He graduated in 2004 as an Army Rangerqualified aviation officer. He is a combat veteran, having served as an Apache attack helicopter pilot in the Iraq War, earning two air medals.
In addition to his West Point bachelors degree, James has earned master degrees from the University of Michigan and Penn State University. John and his wife Elizabeth live in Farmington Hills with their two boys.
Between his years of management experience, leadership in our armed forces, and his educational background, James is clearly a smart and capable candidate for the U.S. Senate. What should separate him in the minds of prolife voters committed to ending the destruction of human life happening in our neighborhoods every day is his shared commitment to respecting the value of every human life.
Earlier in his campaign, James ran a daily video series on social media for 100 days. His video on November 22 detailed his convictions about defending the right to life of every person:
One of the biggest reasons why I am running is I want to speak for those who have no voice. I want to fight for those who cant fight for themselves, and I cant imagine a more vulnerable group of people than our unborn children. I am 100 percent prolife because I believe that life begins at conception and ends in a natural death. I believe that there is no greater sacred trust than that of a child to his or her parent.
Who might be the deciding vote on prolife legislation and Supreme Court nominations in 2019? On August 7, prolife voters have the first opportunity to have their say. When it comes to the right to life, John James will live up to the U.S. Armys motto: This well defend!
It is Congress + a president that could and should eliminate Roe v. Wade not the judiciary.

100% correct.
The law of the land is supposed to be passed by Congress and signed by the President, not made up out of the penumbras by black robed tyrants,
James seems to be the kind of candidate we need to replace the weasels we have.
New GOP primary poll
Venture capitalist Sandy Pensler (male) 32%
John James 29%
Undecided: 39%
James refers to Pensler as a “pro-choice liberal”
Embarrassing news, James campaign sends out mailers that say he will DEFEND rather than DEFUND Sanc Cities. Someone should be fired for that boner.
Better news, Kid Rock has endorsed James.
That smells like sabotage as the drop off version was correct and - ugh- they had the printers do the mailing directly.
The last was probably the mistake made. I am still learning about it but I think they trusted them to do it from the dropoff point.
Partly what comes of being so badly understaffed and driving all over the state on your days off from the other job.
A to Z printing has taken responsibility for the error.
Do you have news link to that? I can’t find anything.
Oh thanks, I was looking for “A to Z printing” but it’s “A2Z Printing”. ;d
