Call your representatives in Congress and
tell them to End Late-Term Abortions!
Do it for the sake of Baby Leonor Beltran.
April 2025
Friends,
For the sake of little baby Leonor Beltran it’s time for the United States to join the rest of the civilized world and …
… PROTECT BABIES FROM LATE-TERM ABORTIONS!
To make that happen Priests for Life has launched the nationwide Ending Late-term Abortion Project and I’m counting on you and the entire Priests for Life family to help lead it. The two actions I need you to take right now are:
- CALL your two U.S. Senators and your member of the House of Representatives. Here’s the number for the Congressional Switchboard: (202) 224-3121. Ask the operator to connect you with for your lawmaker’s office and then tell the staff member who takes your call that you want your representative to support any and all efforts to protect children from horrific late-term abortions.
- Make as large a donation to Priests for Life as you can and support our Ending Late-term Abortion Project. Our nation cannot survive the killing of healthy, viable babies like Leonor.
Leonor’s story is a tragic one.
Her mother, Irene Zamorano, was six months pregnant with Leonor when she made the tragic mistake of killing her little girl in a late term abortion. Irene has given her heartfelt testimony publicly many times as an active member of the Silent No More Awareness Campaign, of which Priests for Life Executive Director Janet Morana is a founder.
Like the vast majority of women who’ve had an abortion, Irene deeply regrets killing her little girl and she hopes her witness will keep other abortion vulnerable mothers from repeating her mistake.
In her testimony Irene admits that she made a dreadful mistake when she’d convinced herself that she couldn’t take care of another baby and chose to have an abortion.
But moments after the abortionist injected a chemical into her womb that would kill her baby, Irene had a change of heart. She woke up from what she described as a “chaotic haze” and said:
“My God, what am I doing here. She’s my daughter.”
In a frantic effort to save her baby, Irene raced from the abortion clinic and went to her mother who drove her to a nearby labor and delivery hospital. Irene desperately wanted to save her baby but it was too late. Her baby’s heart had stopped beating.
Even though Irene was overcome with guilt and grief she refused to go back to the abortion clinic and its merchants of death.
So Irene labored for seven hours and gave birth to her little girl. After Leonor was born, the nurse put the baby’s lifeless body on Irene’s chest where Irene held her and caressed her and cried over her, all the while asking Leonor to forgive her.
Leonor is one of an estimated ten thousand babies who are killed every year in America by abortions at 21 weeks or more.
Their families bear a lifetime of pain.
Your donation will empower Priests for Life to conduct our nationwide Ending Late-term Abortion Project and hopefully compel Congress to take the necessary steps to bring the United States into alignment with the rest of the civilized world.
Now before I say another word about Priests for Life’s Ending Late-term Abortion Project let me assure you that we are NOT giving up our work to end all abortions. That remains are ultimate objective.
We will never abandon a single unborn child.
But tragically it will be years before we achieve that goal.
And in the meantime there are literally thousands of babies we can save right now. These children are at a point where most of them can survive outside the womb, and feel pain within the womb.
This is a winning campaign.
All the polling data confirms that our fellow Americans want to protect unborn babies once they reach 15 weeks development in the womb. A 2023 Harris Poll found that 73% of Americans OPPOSE abortions after the child has reached 15 weeks development in the womb.
A Knights of Columbus-Marist study revealed that 69% of Americans support limiting abortion to, at most, the first three months of pregnancy.
So does the civilized world:
- The United States is one of eight countries that allows abortion on demand without any limits.
- The United States is one of only 15 countries in the United Nations that permit abortion on demand past 15 weeks of gestation.
- 46 out of 50 European U.N. member countries restrict abortion after 15 weeks.
It’s time to get the United States to join the rest of the civilized world and protect children from late-term abortions. In doing so we protect their families from untold pain and distress.
And there’s no better time to do this than RIGHT NOW.
I say because of what Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said during his confirmation hearings to be Secretary of of Health and Human Services. In response to a question from Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) Kennedy stated:
“I agree with President Trump that every abortion is a tragedy. I agree with him that we cannot be a moral nation if we have 1.2 million abortions a year. ... President Trump has told me that he wants to end late-term abortions and… I’m going to implement his policies.”
And Priests for Life is going to help Secretary Kennedy and President Trump.
As for the specifics of Priests for Life’s Ending Late-term Abortion Project here they are.
On a policy level, we are going mobilize Americans to make their voices heard in Congress and in the state houses. We will use every means of communication at our disposal to recruit a nationwide grassroots movement of people who will call on their lawmakers in no uncertain terms to:
Protect children from late-term abortions.
That’s a legislative component of our Ending Late-term Abortion Project. And the dollars I’m asking you to invest in this project will allow Priests for Life to convince untold thousands of our fellow Americans to contact their lawmakers in Congress.
For this to happen, Priests for Life also has to expose the horrors that take place inside of our nation’s abortion mills. We have long known the locations where late-term abortions take place. It’s public information.
We will hold protests outside these abortion mills and explain to the American people what’s taking place inside the death mill – complete with pictures of abortion victims – and call on Congress and the states to put an end to the butchery.
The simple fact of the matter is that to most Americans the term “late term abortion” is merely a concept or an idea. People have no idea of what a late term abortion actually includes. More to the point, the Democrats and their anti-life allies in the pro-abortion media continue to spread the lie that these late term abortions aren’t happening.
But they are. We have proof.
And with your help Priests for Life will make sure our fellow Americans know the TRUTH that late term abortions take place every day all across the country. And that pro-abortion lawmakers willingly and knowingly allow these atrocities to be inflicted on healthy babies like Leonor.
I am absolutely convinced that once our fellow Americans have the FACTS and know the TRUTH they will be only too eager to join our Ending Late-term Abortion Project, make their voices heard in Washington and in the states, and work with Priests for Life to get lawmakers to …
Protect children from late-term abortions.
But again the time to act is right now while we have Donald Trump in the White House, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services, and pro-life lawmakers in the majority in Congress.
And Priests for Life’s Ending Late-term Abortion Project is going to open people’s eyes to the fact that late-term abortions do happen.
That late-term abortions happen every day.
And that they must be stopped.
You will help make that happen through your continued partnership with Priests for Life, which most definitely includes your wholehearted support of Priests for Life’s Ending Late-term Abortion Project.
Specifically, I need three things from you today:
First and foremost, your prayers. Ask God to bless this project with abundant success.
Second, your active participation in this project. Call your three lawmakers in Congress and in the states. Tell them to support any efforts to protect children from late-term abortions. Do this today.
Third, your financial support. It’s going to take upwards of $2.5 million dollars to sustain this project and bring it to a successful conclusion. Your gift of $10, $15, $25 (or hopefully even more) will allow Priests for Life to contact MILLIONS of Americans through:
- Our work with the clergy.
- Our programs on EndAbortion.TV and other outlets.
- Our presence on social media and video-sharing platforms.
- Our shows and spots on the radio stations all across America.
- Our email blasts and mailings to people directly in their homes.
All totaled Priests for Life has the potential to reach THIRTY MILLION people a day.
Working together we can end late-term abortions in America and protect defenseless babies like Leonor.
Thank you for your immediate attention to this critical project.
And know that in heartfelt love and appreciation for your devotion to God’s unborn children I pray for you every day. May God bless you.
Sincerely,
Pro-Life Leader Frank Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life
