This April will be my third time traveling across the state for our annual Pro-Life Town Hall Tour.

The tour is one of the ways we bring the latest pro-life information to people all across the state. We’re planning to share up-to-date news on a variety of topics, including abortion trends in Pennsylvania, dealing with a poor prenatal diagnosis, the push for assisted suicide, the Affordable Care Act, Q&A and more.

I love the tour because we offer a pro-life perspective that people can’t get anywhere else. But most of all, I love having the opportunity to connect with people all across the state.

I love when a grandmother comes to me after a meeting and shares a picture of her grandson who was almost aborted. I love when a teenager eagerly asks me what she can do to help moms and babies. I love listening to the decades-long pro-lifers, because their stories encourage me to keep going strong. And I love talking with the people who aren’t sure where they stand on the life issues and are looking for answers.

Our Pro-Life Town Hall meetings are an opportunity to learn, ask questions, and connect with the people around us.

I hope you’ll join us in Ebensburg, Uniontown, Pittsburgh, Titusville, Erie, State College, Scranton, Nesquehoning, Easton, Philadelphia, Lancaster or Grove City. Click here for details.

And please take a moment to say, “Hello.” I’d love to connect with you.

Pennsylvania Lawsuits Oppose Abortion in HHS Mandate

This month, a Pennsylvania judge is weighing a lawsuit against the controversial federal Health and Human Services Mandate.

Filed by the Catholic Diocese of Erie, the suit says the mandate violates religious liberty by forcing the diocese to pay for contraception and abortion-causing drugs.

Read more about the case here.

The diocese is one of dozens of employers who filed lawsuits opposing the abortion and contraception provisions in the law. These include a business in western Pennsylvania and Geneva College in Beaver Falls.

This dangerous mandate not only is a violation of religious liberty, but its abortion provisions also extend our country’s violation of the right to life.

To learn more about the abortion, medical rationing, and euthanasia provisions in the new health care law, visit our website and click on the videos at the top of the screen.
