Pro Life Lawmakers Stand Together for Life

Lawmakers from across Pennsylvania joined at the state Capitol to stand in support of legislation that would strengthen Pennsylvania’s Abortion Control Act.

Specifically, Senate Bill 3 would completely ban the cruel and brutal practice of dismemberment abortions in the state of Pennsylvania.

In addition, it would enact a ban on abortions from the 20th week on during a pregnancy.

Taking a stance in support of this pro-life legislation was:

House Speaker Mike Turzai (R-Allegheny)

“A life should not be something that you can just so quickly dispose.”

Rep. Kathy Rapp (R-Warren/Crawford/Forest)

“To the reasonable, common man, when you say dismemberment you instantly have an image in your mind of what dismemberment is. Every reasonable, common man does not need a poster because the image comes to our mind very vividly.”

Rep. Sid Michaels Kavulich (D-Lackawanna)

“We (my wife and I) experienced it in both adoption and birth. When it’s time to leave this earth, I can stand before God and say I was 100 percent pro-life.”

Rep. Rick Saccone (R-Allegheny/Washington)
“This is still a pro-life state. Pennsylvania is solidly pro-life. People should let lawmakers know they support Senate Bill 3.”

Urge your state representative to stand up for life and support this legislation. Send a message here through the Catholic Advocacy Network.
