Statement of Mrs. Beverly LaHaye Regarding the Victory on Partial-Birth Abortion 4/18/2007 “The Supreme Court vote today in the partial birth abortion case was a victory for all Americans. The Court ruled to uphold the Constitution to protect every citizen in the United States. This is a day everyone should celebrate. It is a tribute to the hard work for many years of many pro-life groups like Concerned Women for America (CWA) whose mission has been to protect the most innocent in our society. It is also an example of President Bush’s good judgment in appointing judges that exercise judicial restraint and do not create laws out of thin air. Although this decision is a triumph for America, life and the pro-life cause, there is much more work to be done. In this decision, the Court recognized the ‘State’s interest in respect for life’ and has provided a basis in law for restoring humanity to unborn children. Life has won in this battle, but the fight is not over. We must continue and renew our efforts to speak on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves.” | Printer Friendly Version |
