The Choice is Yours

Please send me your comments!

Someone once kidded me to the effect that I must have the eight words "NRLC is only as strong as the grassroots" as a permanent part of my hard-drive, a statement easily pasted into any story. That's an exaggeration, but not much. I know--all of us at NRLC know--it all starts with you.

Before we came to NRLC in 1981, my wife and I were active pro-lifers in Minnesota. So I've seen how our Movement works, both "on the ground" and in Washington, DC. I suspected then what I know now.

Doesn't matter how thoroughly NLRC researches what we say to members of Congress, how persuasive our Political Action Director is to candidates, or how eloquent any of the staff is in making the case for life. What counts is that everyone understands that behind us stands you.

Part of holding up our end of the bargain--actually a major part--is to provide you with accurate, factual, no-bunk information that you can put to good use. That's what this blog is about; what National Right to Life News is primed to do; and what all that is distributed by NRLC through our webpage [www.nrlc.org] and individual departments, is intended to accomplish.

I say all that to make one critically important point. There is an arguably historic mid-term election coming up in three and a half-weeks. You and all your pro-life family, friends, and colleagues need to know where the candidates stand on life. But where do you go to obtain that reliable information?

To http://stoptheabortionagenda.com/downloads/compare-the-candidates. It's one-stop shopping, better yet it can be easily forwarded to your pro-life friends and family for their use.

And don't forget, early voting has already started. (See http://www.nrlc.org/News_and_Views/Sept10/nv091710part2.html and http://www.nrlc.org/NewsToday/2010ElectionMonth.html.)
