Pro-Life Wisconsin kicks off petition drive to protect preborn children in the Wisconsin Constitution!

Act now! Protect preborn children in Wisconsin!
Pro-lifers across the nation have been inspired by bold initiatives at the state and federal level to defend our preborn brothers and sisters. Wisconsin, too, must move forward. Pro-Life Wisconsin has therefore launched a petition drive calling upon
Wisconsinites to protect preborn children in our state constitution. Wisconsinites, born and preborn, deserve total and permanent legal protection of their right to life - an inalienable right grounded in natural law. Why, specifically, is a
constitutional amendment so necessary?

1) The current Wisconsin Constitution applies rights to only those people who are “born.” An activist, politicized Wisconsin Supreme Court could someday use this provision to deny the right to life of the preborn by interpreting an independent right to abortion in our state constitution. In so doing, the court could nullify any present or future pro-life laws in our state.

2) The changing makeup of the Wisconsin Legislature could also jeopardize any pro-life laws in our state. Every two years our state election process determines the majority party in Madison. Legal protection of the preborn should not (and must not) be contingent upon which party controls the state legislature at what time.

3) Only by enshrining the right to life in our state constitution will preborn children be afforded full and lasting legal protection!

Please print the petition online by clicking here.
We ask you to sign the petition and encourage your family, friends and neighbors to sign it as well. Feel free to photocopy the petition and gather as many signatures as you can.
Please mail the petition(s) to the Pro-Life Wisconsin state office at:

The Time to Act is Now!

Our goal is to collect over 10,000 signatures by Spring 2007, so please do all you can to stand up for our preborn brothers and sisters.

E. Urges our state and national legislators to be sensitive to the difficult circumstances surrounding unplanned pregnancies, and supports programs which provide guidance, in a compassionate manner, to help mothers who face an unplanned pregnancy to understand the options available to them, in particular the option of saving the life of each mother's unborn child through adoption.
