U.S. Supreme Court Overturned Roe v Wade
Statement from Louie Kavanaugh Jr. .
President of Daviess County Right to Life Inc.
“We welcome today’s Supreme Court ruling which has reversed Roe v Wade and returned abortion to the States. No, it has not ruled out all abortions but what the U.S. Supreme Court has done is to take a step in the right direction. For 50 years we had little restrictions on abortion but now each state will be able to decide how they should proceed with this new ruling.
We in the pro-life movement will continue to support the Mother and their baby with their unplanned pregnancy. Over 3000 Pregnancy Care Centers across the country and 300 of them in Indiana will double our efforts to do what we can to help mothers to choose life rather than death by abortion. Our Local First Choice Solutions here in Washington Indiana will be in the forefront to help mother and child.
We realize this will not stop all abortions as it will revert back to the states but this is a step in the right direction. In Indiana, the Governor has called for a Special Session beginning on July 6 and we pray this session will have positive results to protect the unborn and encourage mothers to carry their baby to term.
This day has been a long time coming and we pray we can build on this and with God’s help we will do what we can to protect the unborn.”
