TITUSVILLE, FL -- Priests for Life, one of the world’s largest pro-life organizations, stands firmly and publicly against the Colorado Right to Abortion and Health Insurance Coverage Initiative. This amendment would impose a “right to abortion” on Colorado citizens, legislators, courts and agencies through its Constitution. The fact that abortion advocates want this in a state that is already devoid of any limit on abortion shows that it’s not simply about keeping abortion legal – a goal that can always be pursued and achieved through legislative means – but rather that it’s about depriving the pro-life citizens and legislators of Colorado from protecting the unborn and their mothers in the future.
The added fact that this initiative removes the protection that Colorado’s Constitution currently gives to taxpayer dollars, to prevent them from paying for abortions, reveals a further motive: funding the abortion industry.
This initiative will only bring harm and pain to an already wounded state.
Priests for Life is calling on all citizens in Colorado to join in an evening of prayer we are sponsoring on Sunday, Sept. 22 at 6 p.m. MT on EndAbortion.TV (and its linked social media and video-sharing platforms). The intention of these prayers is for the defeat of this initiative and of similar measures in nine other states. State and national leaders will speak and pray on the broadcast.
Likewise, citizens are invited to learn more about these extreme abortion ballot measures through the series Fight the Abortion Ballot Initiatives, also airing on EndAbortion.TV each Thursday evening at 7 p.m. MT.
