They're back home - will you contact them?

An interesting story from http://www.sba-list.org  about contacting your Senators on the anniversary of Roe v. Wade. This follows this post about the Girl Scouts abortion advocacy. For more that you can do to get involved click HERE and you can also get two very interesting books HERE.


They're back home - will you contact them?


Tomorrow marks the tragic 41^st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion through all nine months of pregnancy and has resulted in the loss of over 50 million innocent lives.
Here in Washington, hundreds of thousands of pro-life Americans will march from the Capitol to the Supreme Court in the 20-degree cold to speak up for those who have no voice, and demand action from our elected representatives – I can’t wait to march with them!

But I also know that not all pro-life Americans can attend the March for Life here in DC, and many are wondering what they  can do to make an impact.

If you cannot attend the march, you’ve got an incredible opportunity to influence your U.S. Senators, who are back home in their respective states this week.

You see, our pro-life champions in the U.S. Senate have introduced legislation – the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act – that would protect unborn babies beginning at 20 weeks, or roughly halfway through pregnancy. This historic legislation has already passed the U.S. House.
Already, this bill is up to 40 co-sponsors – but we need even more to force a vote on this legislation, and get every single U.S. Senator on record.
With Senators on recess and back in their respective states this week, they need to hear from YOU, especially during the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
The very first thing you need to do is find out whether or not your two U.S. Senators are co-sponsoring the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act: You can check where your two Senators stand by clicking here.
If they are co-sponsoring, they need to hear your praise. And if they are not, you need to ask them to become co-sponsors.
Here are four simple ways you can influence your two Senators on this important legislation:

1. Visit the local offices of your two Senators. Set up an appointment, or just drop by to express your support for this bill. Click here to find your Senators’ district offices.
2. Call the local offices of your two Senators. Tell them to advance the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. Click here for phone numbers and talking points.  
3. If you don’t have time to visit or call your two Senators, send them an email. Click here to send e-mails to your two Senators. Please keep in mind that visiting your Senators’ offices or calling has a higher impact than this option.
4. Tweet your two Senators. Click here to find their Twitter handles, and sample tweets.
   

Remember, your two Senators are back home this week. This is a unique opportunity for them to hear from you during the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
Once you’ve taken action, don’t forget to forward this email to all of your pro-life family and friends so they can take action too.


For Life,
