Dear Friend,

 

For 41 years, nine unelected men and women on the Supreme Court have played God with innocent human life. They have invented laws that condemned to painful deaths without trial more than 56 million babies for the crime of being "inconvenient."

 

In 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling forced abortion-on--demand down our nation's throat.

 

In the past, many in the pro-life movement have felt limited to protecting a life here and there -- passing some limited law to slightly control abortion in the more outrageous cases.

 

But some pro-lifers always seem to tiptoe around the Supreme Court, hoping they won't be offended.

 

Now the time to grovel before the Supreme Court is over.

 

Working from what the Supreme Court ruled in Roe v. Wade, pro-life lawmakers can pass a Life at Conception Act and end abortion using the Constitution instead of amending it.

 

That is why it's so urgent you sign and return the [requested] enclosed personalized petitions to your Senators and Congressman.

 

You see, despite what the pro-abortion media is parroting from the abortion lobby, the untold story is that pro-lifers actually picked up pledged support in Congress for the Life at Conception Act to overturn Roe v. Wade.

 

So it is vital every Member of Congress be put on record.

 

A Life at Conception Act declares unborn children "persons" as defined by the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, entitled to legal protection.

 

This is the one thing the Supreme Court admitted in Roe v. Wade that would cause the case for legal abortion to "collapse."

 

When the Supreme Court handed down its now-infamous Roe v. Wade decision, it did so based on a new, previously undefined "right of privacy" which it "discovered" in so-called "emanations" of "penumbrae" of the Constitution.

 

Of course, as constitutional law it was a disaster.

 

But never once did the Supreme Court declare abortion itself to be a constitutional right.

 

Instead the Supreme Court said:

 

"We need not resolve the difficult question of when life begins . . . the judiciary at this point in the development of man's knowledge is not in a position to speculate as to the answer."

 

Then the High Court made a key admission:

 

"If this suggestion of personhood is established, the appellant's case [i.e., "Roe" who sought an abortion], of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment."

 

The fact is, the 14th Amendment couldn't be clearer:

 

". . . nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law."

 

Furthermore, the 14th Amendment says:

 

"Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."

 

That's exactly what a Life at Conception Act would do.

 

But this simple, logical and obviously right legislation will not become law without a fight.

 

And that's where your help is critical.

 

By turning up the heat through a massive, national, grass-roots campaign in this Congress, one of two things will happen.

 

If you and other pro-life activists pour on enough pressure, pro-lifers can force politicians from both parties who were elected on pro-life platforms to make good on their promises and ultimately win passage of this bill.

 

But even if a Life at Conception Act doesn't pass immediately, the public attention will send another crew of radical abortionists down to defeat in the next election.

 

Either way, the unborn win . . . unless you do nothing.

 

That's why the National Pro-Life Alliance is contacting hundreds of thousands of Americans just like you to mobilize a grass-roots army to pass a Life at Conception Act.

 

The first thing you must do is send your petitions.

 

They are the key ingredient in the National Pro-Life Alliance's plan to pass a Life at Conception Act. They'll also organize:

 

. . .   Hard-hitting TV, radio and newspaper ads to be run just before each vote, detailing the horrors of abortion and mobilizing the American people.

 

. . .   Extensive personal lobbying of key members of Congress by rank and file National Pro-Life Alliance members and staff.

 

. . .   A series of newspaper columns to be distributed free to all 1,437 daily newspapers now published in the United States.

 

. . .   An extensive direct Mail arid telephone campaign to generate at least one million petitions to Congress like the ones enclosed with this letter.

 

Of course, to do all this will take a lot of money.

 

Just to mail the letters necessary to produce one million petitions will cost at least $460,000.

 

Newspaper, TV and radio are even more expensive.

 

But I'm sure you'll agree pro-lifers cannot just sit by watching the bloodshed continue.

 

The National Pro-Life Alliance's goal is to deliver one million petitions to the House and Senate in support of a Life at Conception Act.

 

When the bill comes up for a vote in Congress, it is crucial to have the full weight of an informed public backing the pro-life position.

 

I feel confident that the folks at National Pro-Life Alliance can gather those one million petitions.

 

But even though many Americans who receive this letter will sign the petitions, many won't be able to contribute. That's why it's vital you send $15, $25, $50, $100, or even more if you can.

 

Without your help the National Pro-Life Alliance will be unable to gather the one million petitions and mount the full-scale national campaign necessary to pass a Life at Conception Act.

 

A sacrificial gift of $35 or even $100 or $500 now could spare literally millions of innocent babies in years to come.

 

So please respond right away with your signed petitions.

 

And please help with a contribution of at least $25 or $35. Some people have already sent as much as $500. Others have sent $50 and $100.

 

But no matter how much you send, whether it's $15 or $150, I guarantee your contribution is urgently needed and will be deeply appreciated.

 

That's why I hope and pray that you will not delay a moment to send your contribution of $1000, $500, $100, $50, or at least $25 if you can.

 

Your contribution to the National Pro-Life Alliance and your signed petitions will be the first steps toward reversing Roe v. Wade and waking up the politicians about where our disastrous pro-abortion policy is taking us.

 

Sincerely,

Roger Wicker

United States Senator

 

P.S.   The Supreme Court itself admitted -- if Congress declares unborn children "persons" under the law, the constitutional case for abortion-on-demand "collapses."

 

          Please help make that happen. Sign and return the [requested] enclosed petitions today to the National Pro-Life Alliance to reverse Roe v. Wade, with a sacrificial contribution of $100, $50, $25, or whatever you can afford.

 

[Please request for the "National Pro-Life Alliance to reverse Roe v. Wade" petition. It is a matter of Life and Death (NPLA, 5211 Port Royal Road, Suite 500, Springfield, VA 22151-9906)!]
