Today the “Committee for Constitutional Freedom” (to kill babies and harm women) has delivered signed petitions to Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft. The signatures must be from six of eight Congressional districts and must equal 8% of the votes that were cast in the last Gubernatorial election in each district, so the total number needed varies depending on the districts in which they collected signatures.
This process, which began a year ago in March, started with the filing of multiple pro-abortion petitions. Secretary of State Ashcroft wrote truthful ballot language which was challenged by the abortion advocates and ultimately ended with the court using the pro-abortion ACLU language as the deceptive ballot language. To read the truth about this deceptive initiative petition go to Devastating-Impact-of-Pro-
The next step in this process will be the Secretary of State’s office verifying all signatures.
In our Decline to Sign Campaign, Missouri Right to Life has educated and activated countless Missourians to fight the battle to “Keep Missouri Pro-Life!” We have done polling, hired trusted political consultants to develop messaging, done major gifts fundraising and continue to engage more and more people to fight this battle. We have developed a network of pro-life organizations from across the state as partners in this effort and this network will grow as we work together in the days ahead.
We thank everyone who has worked to get the truth out about the extreme pro-abortion initiative petition. We will continue to work to protect innocent babies and their moms from the lies of the abortion industry.
