FOCA: The Truth Behind the Words

Folks--Thank you for your commitment to opposing the Freedom of Choice Act.

I have included below a few links that will take you to some resources relating to the Act, including the text of the Act itself.

This link will take you to a series of resources collected by the National Right to Life Committee. This includes a link to the Act itself, as well as a link to a list of Senators and Representatives who are sponsoring the bill.

This link will take you to the USCCB's FOCA site, including information about the postcard campaign.

This link will take you to Planned Parenthood's website where they assert that FOCA will invalidate existing laws limiting access to abortion.

This link is to a NARAL site and includes NARAL's analysis of why it believes FOCA is necessary--to eliminate existing restrictions on abortion and to preserve the right to abortion in the event that Roe v. Wade is overturned by the Supreme Court.

I think it is worth reading the information put forth by the supporters of this legislation to understand what its proponents really want--unfettered access to abortion on demand through every stage of pregnancy. This undermines their claims that the Act will simply codify the Court's holding in Roe v. Wade.

Thank you again for your support and commitment. Please pass this information on to anyone you know who would like to join our effort in opposing this Act. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

May God soften the hearts of those who support abortion rights and may He strengthen us as we undertake this very important work.

God bless you all,
Jeff L
