Washington, DC – In response to President Obama’s speech to Congress last
night, Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, stated, “If
there are ‘misunderstandings’ or ‘bogus claims’ about abortion funding in
pending health reform legislation, as the President claimed in his speech,
they are coming from the White House, not pro-lifers.”
Priests for Life is calling on all believers to join a prayer campaign on
Facebook regarding health care reform. Every church in the country has been
asked to promote this cause at www.prolifeprayers.com.
Likewise, the voices of women who have had abortions are joining the debate
via a video which pro-life groups are distributing at
www.silentnomoreawareness.org/healthcare. Individuals and groups have been
asked by the women themselves to spread this video so that the voice of
experience and not just political debate can be heard.
Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic pro-life
organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia. For more
