NOVEMBER 1, 2018    VOL V, NO 21

PAC ALERT HERE - VOTE PRO-LIFE!

MID-TERMS! According to polls, the District 6 race for US Congress between Andy Barr and Amy McGrath is neck-and-neck, but is it really? Often we see polls with too-close-to-call predictions, but the outcome belies a very different story. One good thing about forecasts is that voters realize they MUST get out and vote AND get out THE vote. Is it too late to get an absentee ballot for your grandmother or friend who may not make it to the polls? Yes. But if they can sit up, take nourishment and walk, then maybe they can vote on Nov. 6 with help from others. Every race and every vote count. Let’s work and pray not to lose the pro-life edge we have enjoyed over the past two years.

EMW & KY FACE OFF ON NOV. 13 A week after the Mid-terms the Western District Court in Louisville will begin to hear arguments on the EMW/ACLU challenge to HB454, the Dismemberment Bill. Though the case had earlier been assigned to Magistrate Judge Regina S. Edwards, it will be heard by Chief District Judge Joseph H. McKinley, Jr. (pictured), an appointee of President Bill Clinton. Documentation posted on Tuesday of this week, listed three attorneys with NY law firm O’Melveny & Meyers LLP, five with the ACLU Foundation, NY, NY, one with the Ky ACLU, and one with local firm Ackerson & Yann PSC as Lead Attorneys for EMW doctors, the plaintiffs. That's 10 Lead Attorneys, and the Bevin administration has five. It’s going to be a crowded courtroom. The hearing continues through Nov. 15. You can read what the ACLU says about the case here . Watch for our report in the next e-letter.

What we don't know can hurt babies! We heard from three legislators at the State Conference on Oct. 27 in E-town. Each encouraged us to get out the vote to preserve the pro-life agenda in Frankfort. (The candidates shown will run in 2019.) The featured speakers, Dr. Matthew Harrison and Melissa Ohden, were outstanding! Did you know: In Europe 50% of all abortions are medical (RU486) and in the USA, they account for 33%. More than 500 Abortion Pill Reversals (APR) have been successful. The APR program is operating in 46 states and 15 countries.  Research studies have shown the APR does not cause birth defects. Let’s get the word out that medical abortions can be reversed! The APR website FAQ states, “Even if 72 hours have passed, call our hotline (877) 558-0333. We are here to help. It may not be too late.” Melissa Ohden encouraged us to make the public aware that there are many babies born alive after abortions. As a nation we must lay down laws to protect these innocents. Born alive at about 31 weeks after five days in saline solution, her personal story was riveting. Finding her birth family members was as much a gift to them as to her. This story helped us think about the treasure of family.
