U.S. House takes up Protect Life Act on Oct. 13! Act today!
WASHINGTON (October 6, 2011) — The U.S. House of Representatives is expected to take up the NRLC-backed Protect Life Act (H.R. 358) on or about Thursday, October 13, 2011. This bill would correct the numerous abortion-expanding provisions of the federal health care law (“ObamaCare”) enacted in early 2010. The bill, sponsored by Congressman Joe Pitts (R-Pa.), is similar to the “Stupak-Pitts Amendment” which initially passed the House in 2009, but which was kept out of the final health care law due to opposition from pro-abortion Democratic senators and President Obama.
Please click the “Take Action!” button above to send a message to your representative in the U.S. House of Representatives, urging him or her to support the Protect Life Act and to oppose all attempts to weaken the bill. You can modify the suggested message as you see fit.

From Michael New at National Review Online, a report about a study of the mental health effects of abortion:
The British Journal of Psychiatry has released a meta-analysis of research on the mental-health effects of abortion. This meta-analysis was authored by Priscilla K. Coleman of Bowling Green University and offers the largest available body of evidence on the psychological impact of abortion. Overall, it presents a very strong body of peer-reviewed research showing that abortion increases the likelihood of depression, anxiety, alcoholism, drug use, and suicide. [Emphasis added.]

Admittedly I am very partial to well-done pro-life videos, but even if I were not a fan I think my jaw still would have dropped when I watched “Interview with an Unborn Child.” This amazing video can be found at www.interviewwithunborn.com.
The creators of this very brief video (4:16) know that abortion is a sensitive topic and even many pro-lifers find brutally honest pictures of aborted babies very unsettling. So they immediately tell the viewer, “The film contains NO shocking images.” And it doesn’t!
Instead the narrator (the unborn child) ever-so-quietly reduces you to tears in about 60 seconds. Why? How?
Partly it is because the refrain “not even my mother” is the narrative thread that binds the video together—that and the expressions of deep, DEEP pain etched on his mother’s face.
The music is perfectly haunting. We understand immediately that this child is utterly alone and completely helpless.

From National Review Online:
The Speaker of the House responds to Joe Biden’s apparent empathy for China’s one-child policy: “I’m deeply troubled by the comments reportedly made by the Vice President yesterday regarding China’s reprehensible one-child policy, which has resulted in forced sterilizations and coerced abortions and should not be condoned by any American official. No government on Earth has the authority to place quotas on the value of innocent human life, or to treat life as an economic commodity that can be regulated and taken away on a whim by the state.”
