An urgent letter from Archbishop Vigneron of Detroit—

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

We are less than two months from the November 8 election, during which voters in Michigan will decide on an issue of paramount importance to protecting the inherent, God-given dignity of all people.

Abortion advocates under “Reproductive Freedom For All” seek to amend the state constitution to allow unregulated abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy. This effort, primarily funded by out-of-state dollars, is spearheaded by Planned Parenthood and the ACLU. It will appear on the ballot as Proposal 3.

The implications of this proposal are vast and extreme. If passed, the proposal’s vague wording would result in the elimination of dozens of Michigan laws relating to abortion, including: laws prohibiting partial-birth abortion and taxpayer-funded abortion; laws requiring parental consent and informed consent for abortion; laws protecting the conscience rights of persons who refuse to participate in abortion, and more. The proposal would prohibit lawsuits from being brought against any individual for performing an abortion, even when complications result from the procedure.

Proposal 3 is not about protecting existing rights, but rather about revoking the right to life for an untold number of human beings.

BE SURE TO VOTE NO ON NOVEMBER 8!

PRO-LIFE VOLUNTEER SHOT
An 84-year-old pro-life volunteer was shot in the back last week while going door-to-door to raise awareness about Proposal 3, a pro-abortion ballot measure in Michigan. The woman, who remains anonymous, was reportedly shot in the back-shoulder area while leaving a residence after a heated conversation. The identity and motive of the shooter are unknown. The victim is recovering well from the gunshot wound. READ
