Friends,
Priests for Life has launched the single most aggressive campaign ever conceived in the pro-life movement. Its goal is nothing less than this:
To establish a 60-seat, filibuster-proof, pro-life majority in the U.S. Senate and empower Congress to pass laws that protect our unborn brothers and sisters.
Project 60 thinks big.
Aims high.
And even though most political experts say it’s out of reach, we’re going forward anyway. We’re doing so because with God nothing is impossible.
Just the opposite in fact. With God all things are possible. Including getting a filibuster-proof 60-vote pro-life majority in the U.S. Senate.
So Priests for Life is going to put all of our vast election-related experience to work and join forces with national, state and local pro-life organizations to reach out to voters and convince them that America cannot survive as a free and prosperous nation as long as we kill our babies in legal abortions.
Before I give you the specifics of Project 60, as well as the reasons why it is so important in our fight to end America's abortion holocaust, I need you to take ownership of the Campaign in two ways:
To PRAY for its success.
And to help FUND its $1.2 million cost with a donation for as large a gift as you can make to Priests for Life today, whether that’s for $10 or $100.
Your prayers and your financial support are critically needed if we are to give our unborn brothers and sisters a 60-vote “filibuster proof” majority in the Senate.
The campaign has the support of a wide range of pro-life leaders from organizations throughout the entire country.
They’re rallying behind this because of what Deal Hudson said about Priests for Life’s efforts following the 2016 election when Priests for Life was pivotal in propelling Donald Trump into the White House.
After stating that Priests for Life had a “decisive influence” on that election Deal wrote:
“No priest or religious had more impact on the Catholic and pro-life voters than Frank Pavone. And no Catholic organization had more impact than Priests for Life. To be perfectly candid, it’s not even a close call!”
Deal has worked in election campaigns for decades. So his high praise gives me the confidence to proceed with Priests for Life’s $1.2 Million Project 60 Campaign.
A 60-vote, pro-life, filibuster-proof majority is needed in order for our friends in the Senate to:
- Overcome the pro-abortion votes of pro-abortion Senators in both parties.
- To secure passage of important pro-life legislation, primarily:
- Efforts to STOP FUNDING Planned Parenthood and the whole abortion industry
- The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.
- Repeal the unconstitutional Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE).
- Efforts to provide protection for babies in the womb
Having watched pro-abortion Democrats block pro-life bill after pro-life bill in the Senate – along with a couple Republican pro-abort Senators – I’m fed up with the stalemate. The youngest and most vulnerable members of our human family deserve better.
Countless pro-life bills have passed the House over the years – bills outlawing abortion, stopping the funding of it, protecting the rights of pro-life citizens – but they have never become law because even when we had the majority in the Senate we did not have 60 votes to end Democrat filibusters.
And Priests for Life is determined to use the election process to change that.
Like I said, Project 60 thinks big and aims high.
And we realize that 60 reliable votes is not identical to “60 Republicans.” We have a couple of Republicans who do not always vote pro-life. We are talking about 60 solid pro-life votes.
With your prayers and financial support Priests for Life will put all of our vast election-related experience to work and join forces with national, state and local pro-life organizations to reach out to voters and convince them that America cannot survive as a free and prosperous nation as long as we kill our babies in legal abortions.
In point of fact:
Project 60 begins now!
The 2026 mid-term elections begin now!
We’re not waiting until next year to get started. Even as you read my letter the Priests for Life staff is training voters in the states where there will be elections for the U.S. Senate in 2026.
Here’s where things stand in those races. As of now, the Republicans hold 53 seats in the Senate, the Democrats have 47 (if you count the two “independents” who vote in lock step with the Democrats).
In the 2026 mid-term elections, 13 Democratic-held seats are in play along with 20 Republican-held seats. To reach our Project 60 goal the Republicans will need to win all 20 of the races its candidates are in and flip seven of the 13 Democrat-held seats.
That’s a tall order to be sure. But it’s not impossible. Here’s why.
- Of the 33 states holding elections in 2026, President Donald Trump (R) won 21 of those states in the 2024 presidential election. Kamala Harris (D) won 12.
- Morevoer, Democrats will be defending two Senate seats in states Trump won in 2024 (Georgia and Michigan), while Republicans will be defending one seat in a state Harris won (Maine).
And while those facts are encouraging, it won’t be easy to achieve our goal. Knowing that I have instructed the entire Priests for Life to pull out all the stops to achieve Project 60’s ambitious goal of establishing a filibuster-proof, 60-vote pro-life majority in the U.S. Senate.
This includes our full operation of community outreach and political activism:
- Election broadcasts and videos for our EndAbortion.TV network and our multiple YouTube, social media and other video-sharing platforms. On a daily basis, our broadcasts are seen by a million people.
- Our EndAbortion Podcast, the number one podcast in the subject category of abortion, reaches close to a MILLION views a day.
- Emails to over 500,000 pro-life leaders and activists daily with instructions on various actions they can take to help win the battle against abortion.
- Daily radio spots. At any one moment we can reach 30 Million listeners with information on how they help end America's abortion holocaust.
- Voter Guides that Priests for Life will distribute to upwards of FIVE MILLION voters in states that will hold Senate elections in 2026.
- Homilies for clergy. We will emphasize with these shepherds just how vital it is that they get their flocks to be involved in the 2026 mid-term elections.
- Recruitment ads for poll workers. These individuals play a critical role in the success of elections and work to make elections are run according to Election law.
- Provide valuable training seminars for pro-life activists. In the last election Priests for Life trained tens of thousands of people to canvass neighborhoods, make phone calls, and pass out literature.
- Conduct Voter Registration drives at churches and other places. The key to winning elections is making sure pro-life Americans are registered to vote and then make sure they VOTE and VOTE PRO-LIFE.
That’s just a partial list of what Priests for Life will do throughout our Project 60 Campaign. And remember:
We’re not acting alone.
A short time ago Priests for Life hosted a 3-day meeting with national pro-life leaders where we discussed Project 60. To a person each one of these individuals agreed that, while definitely ambitious, this was something the pro-life movement had to launch make happen. As I hope you can tell …
The enthusiasm for Project 60 is over the top.
And the Priests for Life family will be key to Project 60’s success.
That’s as it should be. After all, thanks to the tireless work and deep-seeded commitment of you and team members like you, Priests for Life is the recognized face and voice of America’s pro-life movement.
All of which is why I’m counting you to take ownership of the Project 60 Campaign. So:
PRAY for its success.
And help FUND its $1.2 million cost with as large a donation to Priests for Life that you can make today, even if it’s a gift of just $10 or $20.
Your prayers and your financial support are critically needed if we are to give our unborn brothers and sisters the 60-vote “filibuster proof” pro-life majority in the Senate they need to safeguard their God-given RIGHT TO LIFE.
Current Project 60 program cost estimates run upwards of $500,000 a month.
The donation you make today, as well as those you send in the coming months, will help raise those funds and sustain all the work I outlined for you above.
So sign on today.
And don’t count the cost. God is never outdone in generosity, and especially not when He sees that you are sacrificing for the sake of His defenseless unborn babies.
Thank you for what I know will be your best gift possible. And know that in heartfelt appreciation for your selfless giving, I pray for you every day. May God bless you.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life
P.S. While I ask that you begin praying NOW for the success of Project 60, I want to give you advance notice that Priests for Life will conduct a 9-Month Novena to St. Gianna Molla, the Patron of Mothers, Wives and Unborn Babies.
You’ll recall that Priests for Life has a special devotion to St. Gianna and has a shrine to her in our offices. When we dedicated the shrine in 2011 Dr. Gianna Emanuela Molla, the girl who was born healthy due to the sacrifice of her mother, came to Priests for Life headquarters for the dedication and presented us with a relic of her mother, a piece of cloth the saint wore.
Given the connection between Priests for Life and St. Gianna Molla it is only fitting that we invoke her divine intervention for the success of Project 60 with a 9-Month Novena that will begin on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 and continue through to Election Day November 3. I will send you the Novena Prayer we will say once we get closer to the start date.
