Defund Planned Parenthood and protect preborn babies

On May 19, 2011
Sr. Rosalie Bauer

To the editor:

Marie Gestrich, in her May 12  letter to the editor, provided excellent information on Planned Parenthood. Who wants to pay for killing human preborn babies?  What we can do to defund Planned Parenthood?

Planned Parenthood is Wisconsin’s largest provider of abortion. It’s time to stop our taxes from being used to fund their abortion/birth control industry. Let’s defund Planned Parenthood.

With your help this is possible! Forms are available for you to sign to “Defund Planned Parenthood,” and forms are available  to “Protect Preborn Children in the Wisconsin Constitution.” The latter, when it is included in our Wisconsin Constitution, will provide total legal protection of the right to life for each human preborn babies, our brothers and sisters. Our present state Constitution includes persons who are born, but does not include the preborn.

Contact Pro-Life Wisconsin, phone 1-877-463-7945 for these forms. Or go to their Web site www.prolifewisconsin.org then to Legislative Affairs to State Issues to 2009-2010 Legislative Session; on the left side you’ll see: Sign our Petitions.

Or you may choose to e-mail Pro-Life Wisconsin to [email protected] or locally call 608-364-2830 for these forms.

These are significant human life issues.  Will you please take the time and the needed actions to defund Planned Parenthood and to protect preborn children in the Wisconsin Constitution?  Thank you!

Sr. Rosalia Bauer,  Beloit
