Dear Londa, As you've undoubtedly heard, Justice David Souter is leaving the Supreme Court, and President Obama will soon nominate a replacement. Since casting his first vote against life in Planned Parenthood v. Casey in 1992, Justice Souter has repeatedly voted to extend the tragedy of abortion -- into all nine months of pregnancy, at any time, and for any reason. In 2000 and again in 2007, Justice Souter voted to make partial-birth abortion a Constitutional right. You and I don’t want another Justice Souter on the Supreme Court, so we have to make our voices heard. People are waiting to see if we will respond. I’ve had countless reporters ask me what the pro-life movement is going to do. That’s why AUL’s work is so important. In everything from the Wall Street Journal to the Congressional Quarterly to the Chicago Tribune, AUL is speaking out against any nominee who intends to implement a radical abortion rights agenda as a Supreme Court Justice. In addition, the AUL Legal Team has put together and is distributing widely a comprehensive report on potential Supreme Court nominees. The report examines those we believe are on President Obama’s "short list," as well as other potential nominees he may be considering. Every potential nominee is pro-abortion and would advance President Obama’s radical agenda to pass FOCA, eliminating every restriction on abortion nationwide. You can read the report to see just how radical the President’s nominee could be. Right now, I need your help to continue this vital work. Already, pro-abortion groups like NARAL and Planned Parenthood are raising money to help them make sure the next Supreme Court Justice will not only uphold Roe v. Wade, but go even further. They want the new Justice to read the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) into the Constitution -- striking down every abortion restriction in the nation. You see, they haven't yet succeeded in getting FOCA through Congress. And their Plan B -- passing FOCA through Congress "by stealth" -- is taking longer than they’d like. In the meantime, they're moving ahead with Plan C -- to have an activist Supreme Court erase every pro-life law nationwide. Unfortunately, a new Justice who would read FOCA into the Constitution wouldn't be alone. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has even written a law review article detailing how she would do it. So you see, the stakes are very high indeed. If President Obama sends a pro-abortion nominee to the US Senate, we will do everything possible to make sure that nominee is rejected. We need your help to make sure we don’t get another pro-abortion Justice. Will you send a generous gift today? Time is of the essence. We must show the US Senate that we will not stand for another Justice Souter who will continue to undermine our right to protect women and children from the tragedy of abortion. Together, we can make our voices heard. Yours for life, Charmaine Yoest, Ph.D.President & CEOAmericans United for Life P.S. -- With a vacancy on the Supreme Court, we must act now to stop Planned Parenthood and NARAL from getting a new Justice who will read the Freedom of Choice Act into the Constitution. Please give generously today to help. Thanks!
