Lives
are being saved because of your investment in the election of sincere
pro-life legislators and the passage of protective pro-life state
laws. Children and moms are being spared the grief of an abortion
decision because of positive public education programs in churches,
campuses, and community events where friendly Right to Life volunteers
share facts, alternatives to abortion, and opportunities for involvement
in the pro-life movement.
Speaking of facts, did you know:
- 4 abortion facilities have closed in Tennessee since 2012
- 7 facilities remain which advertise and perform surgical and/or chemical (RU 486) abortions
- The facilities are in Bristol (1), Knoxville (2), Memphis (3) and Nashville (1)
- In 2016, 9,732 abortions were sought by women residing in our state
- 85% of women and girls seeking abortions are unmarried
- 38% of abortions are sought by women having had 1 or more previous abortions
Thanks
to you and the work of fellow pro-life Tennesseans, we have the
strongest pro-life legislature and laws at any time since Roe v Wade. Required
informed consent for women and girls considering an abortion and a
mandatory 48-hour waiting period help to ensure that every woman has
fuller knowledge about the age and development of her unborn child as
well as public and private agencies available to assist her. Upon her
request, she must also be given the opportunity to view the ultrasound
image of her child.
You can help keep these public policies by
returning pro-life super-majorities to the Tennessee state House, state
Senate, and Tennessee's Congressional delegation. In addition,
Tennessee must have a Governor with the demonstrated commitment and
capability to stand without fail for life.
