“Progressive” Governor Stalls
Progress on Life Issues
By Maria Gallagher, Legislative Directo
r
He might call himself a progressive, but the Governor of Pennsylvania is standing directly in the way of progress, when it comes to pro-life advances in the Commonwealth. Democrat Tom Wolf has staked out a position at odds with the state’s mainstream, when it comes to the life issues. He opposes any and all restrictions on abortion, towing the Planned Parenthood line time and time again.
He vetoed a common sense bill that would have banned brutal dismemberment abortions, where babies are torn limb by limb from their mothers’ wombs. The former volunteer clinic escort for Planned Parenthood opposes a ban on taxpayer funding of abortion, even though such a measure is supported by the vast majority of Americans.

Call Your State Senator to
Protect Children
with Down Syndrome
By Maria V. Gallagher, Legislative Director
The Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation urges you to call and email your state Senator in the Pennsylvania Senate and urge him or her to support House Bill 321, the Down Syndrome Protection Act. House Bill 321 is a common sense bill which would ban abortion for the sole reason of a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome. The bill received overwhelming, bipartisan support in the PA House, where it passed handily, and is now pending in the state Senate.
Please note: This is a state issue, not a federal one, so there is no need to contact Senators Casey and Toomey.
Thank you for making these critical calls and sending these important emails!

Diamond & Silk
in Harrisburg
There's still a few more
seats in the theater!
Reserve yours today!
Due to overwhelming demand, the Federation’s 40th anniversary Celebrate Life Banquet featuring Diamond & Silk is SOLD OUT. But, there is a way you can still come and hear these pro-life sensations and see them in person on Tuesday, October 15, 2019.
As an alternative we have arranged to have
theater style seats
set up in a room adjacent to the banquet ballroom where people can attend their pro-life presentation on a big screen via
LIVE
video. After their presentation, Diamond & Silk will leave the stage in the ballroom and immediately go to the theater room for a brief chit-chat with everyone there. So if you are there you will see them in-person!
Reserve your seats for $30 each TODAY by clicking

Gosnell Movie Screening
The Concerned Citizens for Human Life Bedford
is inviting residents of Blair, Cambria, and Allegheny counties, as well as pro-lifers in Maryland to attend a screening of the film
Gosnell : The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer
at the Pitt Theater in Bedford on
November 2, 2019
at
2:30 p.m
. Because the film exposes the horrors of abortion, media bias prevented it from being widely shown in the theaters across the country. As a result many people have not seen it or even heard of it! Attendees may make a free-will donation to help defray the cost of renting the theater. Contact Doug Braendel at dcbraendel@gmail.com for more information.
