WASHINGTON, Jan. 24, 2013 /
Christian Newswire/ -- Prolife leaders from around the country will gather at Planned Parenthood this morning to pray for an end to abortion.
At 10:00 am national leaders will also announce the release of the first in a series of videos demanding that the US House of Representatives cease all funding for abortion.
News Conference Details--
When: Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 10 AM
Where: In front of Planned Parenthood, 1108 16th Street NW
Why: To unveil our opening TV ad to bring this outrage to the attention of voters within the districts of House Republican RINOs, starting with John Boehner's 8th Congressional District of Ohio. For us, ending debt-financed abortion subsidies, ending all borrowing for baby killing, is a morally-absolute non-negotiable. We wish more than a small handful of so-called pro-life House Republicans understood that.
"We will no longer allow the Speaker to call himself prolife while he allows billions of dollars to follow into the hands of the nation's largest abortion provider," said Troy Newman, president of the Kansas-based pro-life group Operation Rescue.
