Tomorrow is , and Americans United for Life is inviting you to join our lifesaving work: aul.org/give

Americans United for Life works in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to advance the human right to life through culture, law, and policy - and we have seen nation-shaping results! In the past year:

-The U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade with their decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. AUL’s own Clarke Forsythe was cited by Justice Samuel Alito in the decision.

-We've seen life win at the federal level as judges dismiss pro-abortion lawsuits and affirm lifesaving laws.

-While previously restricted by Roe, thirteen states prepared conditional laws to abolish abortion. These laws were activated once the Supreme Court overruled Roe and returned the abortion issue to the democratic process.

-Just since Dobbs, state lawmakers passed 28 pro-life laws that safeguard women’s health and safety, abolish abortion, enhance conscience rights, protect unborn children against disability-selective abortions, and expand social welfare support for pregnant women and young families.

Make no mistake: your support of Americans United for Life is saving lives, every day. And together, we'll do even more in the year to come.

This Giving Tuesday, every gift to AUL will be matched! If you’ve contemplated supporting our work with a gift this fall, now is the time: aul.org/give

Veterans Affairs Cannot Impose Abortion on Demand - AUL

The current Biden administration is pushing abortion on demand through various federal channels.

Americans United for Life is standing for life on the federal level and pushing back against the radical idea that VA hospitals can offer abortions in pro-life states. A new VA proposal is in defiance of life-affirming state legislation. Congress itself has prohibited the VA from providing abortions.

See our recent comment that was filed here:

Americans United for Life filed a comment yesterday in opposition to the Veterans Affairs (VA) Interim Final Rule (IFR), “Reproductive Health Services.”

Doctors Perform Life Saving Surgery on Preborn Child

Prenatal surgery is amazing! Prenatal

10/13/2022

On April 26, 1992 a baby was born to parents that did not want him.

Fortunately for that child, they chose to give him up for adoption instead of choosing abortion. One day after he was born he was adopted by Patty and Wayne Judge who went on to love him and raise him the same as if he was born to them. This 30 yr old, 6 foot 7, 282 lb man could very well have just been an aborted statistic, but because his birth parents chose life for their son, a man of strong character has become the perfect role model for a generation that is sorely in need of one.

Last night this man tied the record for the most home runs without cheating in a season. In the next 7 games, he has the chance to break the record as well as win the triple crown.

MOMS Fight for Parental Rights in MN - Americans United for Life

Bi-partisan MOMS fight to know if their underage daughters are obtaining abortions. Great to see a stand for parental rights in Minnesota Abortion Law! Good news. Grateful for our friends at Minnesota Family Council

Young girls, often well under 18 years old, are not equipped to undergo the physical, emotional, and psychological burden of abortion. What parent would want their daughter to go through the trauma of teen pregnancy alone?

Here for a Reason: Planned Parenthood Performs Almost 200 Abortions for Every One Adoption Referral - Charlotte Lozier Institute

Planned Parenthood's annual report highlights its "Reason" for existing: profiting off killing pre-born humans through abortion.

“Planned Parenthood’s annual report is titled ‘Here for a Reason’ and their own data shows that reason is abortion. Planned Parenthood’s callous disregard for those less fortunate is evident when you consider they performed fewer than 3,000 cases of miscarriage care and fewer than 2,000 adoption referrals in an entire year but performed almost 400,000 abortions on vulnerable women and girls.” - Nichole C. Wilson, executive director of Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI)

Annual Report Shows Abortions Are Nearly 100% of Planned Parenthood’s Pregnancy Resolution Activities Washington, D.C. – Planned Parenthood performed 383,460 abortions in 2019-2020 according to their latest annual report, performing almost 200 abortions for every one adoption referral.   Nichol...

Religious Pro-Life Americans Under Attack - Religious Freedom Institute

Americans United for Life stands with our Pro-Life allies calling on Law Enforcement and Media to stop ignoring the violent attacks being carried out against Pro-Lifers since Roe's fall.

The Religious Freedom Institute (RFI) commissioned a former FBI counter-terrorism and intelligence expert to assess recent crimes against pro-life institutions, and the prospects for future attacks, in the wake of the Dobbs decision.

Georgia Abortion Law Says a Fetus Is Tax Deductible

Looking Ahead After a Pro-Life Loss in Kansas

Carolyn McDonnell, staff counsel at Americans United for Life, told the Register that, recently, “in at least 11 states, abortionists have raised the argument that the state constitution protects abortion as a right.” With the Bluegrass State amendment, “Kentucky is trying to prevent that,” McDonnell said. “They’re trying to say that the state constitution does not obviously protect abortion.”

McDonnell pointed to recent pro-life success in this area, including a case in Iowa in June, just ahead of the Dobbs ruling, where the state Supreme Court overruled “their previous decision, saying there is no fundamental right to abortion under the state constitution.”

She said that in the wake of Roe being overturned, Montana has raised a challenge to the supposed right to abortion in the state constitution, and “what they’re saying there is because Dobbs is gone, some of that legal reasoning that the state court had relied upon is now gone, as well.”

What the failure of the ‘Value Them Both’ Amendment could mean for the midterm elections and other state initiatives.

08/03/2022

"The result in Kansas is a sobering reminder that the path to a future America undivided over an imagined right to destroy our children in the womb will be long and fraught with setbacks.

We are in it for the long haul, as we were for the nearly fifty years it took to reverse Roe. We know that when people see what abortion does, we turn away from it. No amount of political spending or astroturfing a misinformed "abortion movement" can change that."
