Written by Anna T. of Lake Zurich, Illinois

When I was invited to meet my local state legislator, State Representative Mary Edly-Allen (D-Libertyville), I never  imagined that a woman, a former teacher, and a mother of four could hold such callous views of precious babies almost born. Rep. Edly-Allen laughed when she was confronted with the reality that abortion dismembers even viable babies in Illinois at  taxpayers’ expense. She stated it “wasn’t her job” as an elected leader to protect babies.… Continue Reading

Kamala Harris: Abortion Cheerleader

Written by Jenna Smith

Two weeks ago, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden announced his choice for vice president, and Kamala Harris is the winner. If you were lucky enough to miss the Democratic presidential debates prior to 2020, and before they nominated Joe Biden, you might be wondering, who in the wide wicked world of politics is that, and why would I care that she has been nominated for potential VP?

Kamala Harris served as the California attorney general between 2010 and 2016 before running for the U.S.… Continue Reading

SPOTLIGHT: Abortion Deaths Continue Despite COVID-19

Written by David E. Smith

During the coronavirus pandemic, when surgical procedures to alleviate suffering and correct serious medical conditions were deemed non-essential and disallowed, the “essential” dismemberment and murder of babies in the womb continued unabated at abortion clinics throughout Illinois, including Planned Parenthood’s newest abortorium in Waukegan.

Monte Larrick and Eric Scheidler recently met to discuss Pro-Life Action League’s response to the opening of the 18th Planned Feticide center in Illinois. Eric details how PP has exploited weaknesses in local government in order to open their facilities with virtually no opportunity for public input or opposition, and he explains how PP decides where to place their “health” centers for maximum traffic and profitability.… Continue Reading

Top Ten Reasons I’ll Never Support the Pro-Abortion #BlackLivesMatter Movement

Written by Ryan Bomberger

Every life unjustly killed deserves justice. In the cause to make things right, I will not join a movement that has nearly everything wrong. More innocent lives have now been killed (#BlueLivesMatter, too) since these predominantly violent protests began over George Floyd’s horrific death. What about the black lives killed in this nationwide chaos? Do they matter?

“Well, you don’t have to agree with everything. Just pick out the good things in the #BlackLivesMatter movement,” I’m told.… Continue Reading

Science-Denying Joe Biden

Written by Dr. Everett Piper

As the polls closed and the nation’s votes were being counted, a major news flash was developing.… Continue Reading

Joe Biden’s “Moral Fiber,” or Lack Thereof, on Abortion

Written by Adelaide Holmes

On April 14, 2020, former President Barack Obama endorsed his former Vice President and presidential candidate Joe Biden. In his video announcement, he says of Biden, “Through all his trials, he’s never once forgotten the values or the moral fiber that his parents passed on to him and that made him who he is.” But Obama is incorrect.

When it comes to the issue of abortion, Biden has evolved from the moderate he claimed to be into a radical supporter of abortion rights.… Continue Reading

SPOTLIGHT: Mary Louise Hengesbaugh on the Right to Life

Written by David E. Smith

Right to Life issues have been under attack for quite some time in our state, so it should come as no surprise that Illinois’ “progressive” legislators have their sights trained on yet another pro-life, pro-female protective measure. In a conversation at the SpeakOut Illinois conference in February, Mary Louise Hengesbaugh, director of Illinois Citizens for Ethics PAC, and Monte Larrick discuss the crucial benefits and protections afforded minors by the Parental Notice of Abortion Act.… Continue Reading
