Dear Friends,
Look
closely at the image above. Fifty years ago, I stood alongside my
friend, Congressman Henry Hyde, as we worked tirelessly to draft and
pass the Hyde Amendment. We didn’t do it for political theater;
we did it to ensure that your conscience—and your wallet—would never be
forced into a partnership with death.
The Hyde
Amendment prohibits the use of your tax dollars to fund abortion. It has
been renewed in budget negotiations every year since 1977. While the
final version included exceptions that ALL has never supported, the
original intent and purpose is to not allow taxpayer-funded abortion.
Today,
I am horrified to hear the Hyde Amendment discussed as a “bargaining
chip” by “pro-life” Republicans in Washington to get a “deal done” on
the federal budget.
Let me be clear: The lives of the innocent are not for sale.
But
we know for sure that the consciences, character, resolve, moral fiber,
integrity, and beliefs of our “pro-life friends and politicians” in
Washington are on sale by the hour.
Since Roe v. Wade, tens of millions of babies have perished through abortion in America. And despite Roe’s
overturning in 2022, abortions in our country have actually increased
every year. This is a staggering national tragedy. Sadly, as we enter
2026, it seems our country drifts further and further into numbness. We
have become desensitized to the silent screams of the most vulnerable.
We have allowed the culture of death to shroud the truth in slogans and
political convenience.
America must wake up.
In
2026, American Life League will fervently continue its mission to
awaken the hearts, minds, and consciences of our fellow citizens. We
cannot simply “negotiate” around the destruction of a human being. We
must restore the total sanctity of life, from the first moment of
creation until death.
As the National March for Life approaches
on January 23, we demand that our leaders stand firm. We are not
looking for “flexibility.” We are looking for courage, resolve, and
justice.
Will
you join me in this fight? Your gift of $25 or $100 today will allow us
to remain the uncompromising voice for those who cannot speak for
themselves. We must break through the demonic oppression of indifference
that weighs down this country and numbs the very best of us. We must
stand in courage; we must choose life.
Yours humbly in Christ,
