Conversions: What Has Roe Done for Us? Tour
On
January 22, 1973, 7 men on the U.S. Supreme Court struck down more than
30 state bans on abortion, and legalized abortion in all 9 months of
pregnancy, for whatever reason, across the United States. Regardless of
whether you know their names, these historic decisions, Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton,
have affected your life. Abortion advocates argue that legal abortion
is necessary for women’s liberation, but what has Roe really done for
us?The What Has Roe Done for Us? Tour is exposing the injustice of what happens when abortion is made legal. The tour has stopped at only 4 schools, and we've already seen changed minds! Watch the videos below to see what pro-life and pro-choice students are saying about the tour!   And the School Administration Bully Strikes AgainIf you have been following our Students for Life High School Initiative, Branford High School in Branford, CT is a school you have been hearing a lot about. Sam Bailey-Loomis, the President and founder of Branford High School Students for Life, has been one of our top high school leaders this past year, participating in our first ever Thaddeus Stevens Fellowship and leading her group to win the 2014 Students for Life High School Group of the Year award. Sadly though, it is no surprise that her life-saving success has been met with resistance from her administration. Since February of last year, Sam’s principal, Lee Panagoulias, and other administration members have attempted to censor and limit the effectiveness of the Students for Life club at their public school, telling them they could not have life-like fetal models on their education table and making it difficult for them to form and sustain the club. In the past few weeks, Mr. Panagoulias denied Sam and her club the ability to invite others to join the group in the form of clip boarding and handing out literature to students during lunch. The school has also told Branford High School Students for Life that they can only host events after school, a restriction not imposed on other student groups. When planning the spring semester, Sam met with her principal to ask permission to host events and inform others about her club, going out of her way to be above reproach and adhere to the school’s policies. She came prepared with the Branford High School Student Handbook and made it clear that their proposed events were well within the student guidelines and were similar to those that other students clubs had been approved to do. The principal then told Sam he would “think about it” – a common delay tactic used by school officials across the United States. Over the next week, the principal postponed meetings, leaving Sam in a state of limbo. After multiple attempts, Sam finally got her answer. The club could not hand out pro-life literature, clipboard, or set up an information table in the commons area during lunch.
