Pro-Life Rally & Lobby Day
March 20, 2019 @ 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Please join Illinois Family Institute, Illinois Right to Life, Pro-Life Action League, Illinois Federation Right to Life, Springfield Right to Life, Lake County Right to Life, Illinois Conservative Union, ICE-PAC and dozens of other church groups and hundreds of pro-life warriors in Springfield to lobby against the following anti-life bills:

  • HB 2495, wrongly named the Reproductive Health Act, sponsored by State Representative Kelly Cassidy (D-Chicago), will repeal the 1975 Illinois Abortion law; will repeal the Partial Birth Abortion Ban; and will remove any and all regulations for clinics that commit abortions.
  • HB 2467, sponsored by State Representative Chris Emmanuel Welch (D-Westchester), will repeal the Parental Notice of Abortion Act of 1995, which only requires notification — not consent.

This must be stopped! Planned Parenthood, Personal PAC and the ACLU will stop at nothing to achieve their body-and soul-destroying goals. If we fail to do everything in our power to block the passage of these bills, we become complicit in the destruction of countless more innocent lives.

While Illinois deals with its budget and pension crises, pro-life citizens are encouraged to attend the lobby day in Springfield on March 20th, to remind state officials of their job to protect the fundamental right to life for even the smallest among us.  We must speak for those who cannot speak for themselves!

Churches and civic groups should organize and drive down on their own. Parking can be found south and west of the Capitol. Additional parking on west side streets. To reserve bus space on Monroe St. between College & 2nd, contact Mark Seger with the City of Springfield, 217-789-2255. (If you are coordinating a bus to travel to Springfield as a group, please let us know!)
