The moment the Supreme Court of the United States issued a partial-birth abortion decision — ruling on the side of LIFE — Senate and House liberals began to cry foul. In a serious attempt to undercut the highest court of our land and thwart the pro-life movement, Rep. Nadler and Sens. Clinton, Schumer, and Boxer introduced legislation, the "Freedom of Choice" Act, that would overturn the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act and prohibit any future congressional endeavor to protect the life of the unborn on a federal level. It is a selfish, political play by House and Senate liberals that should be overpowered by the united voice of the American people, raised in protest. Please read the form below carefully and declare your membership with the ACLJ by signing our Petition in Protest.

A Petition in Protest
Against the So-Called "Freedom of Choice" Act
(H.R. 1964 and S.1173)

United States House of Representatives Judiciary Committee Chairman,
The Honorable John Conyers, Jr.

United States Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman,
The Honorable Patrick J. Leahy

A majority of Americans clearly abhor the practice of partial-birth abortion. Congress passed a federal ban against it, the President signed the ban, and the Supreme Court of the United States has now upheld the ban.

It was inappropriate for members of Congress to introduce the "Freedom of Choice" Act, which would totally reverse the decision of the people, the Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court.

To replace a ban on partial-birth abortion with a ban on federal regulation of abortion would represent an outrageous affront to the American people.

It is also of dubious constitutionality to make this bill retroactive.

We urge you to use your influence with the Committee to kill this bill rather than sending it to the floor for a vote.
