<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Dear Art Kelly,
</FONT><BR></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>We’re really getting
down to crunch-time with the health care reform bill. The
House is expected to take a vote on it as early as tomorrow.
Nancy Pelosi has decided to keep members of the House there
until a vote is reached, and abortion is the hurdle preventing
this. Pro-abortion leaders, along with the abortion industry,
are fighting hard to keep abortion-on-demand in the health
care bill. It’s Planned Parenthood’s number one priority. This
means you and I will be paying for a skyrocketing number of
abortions if this passes. </FONT><BR></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>And don’t let your
elected official be fooled by the so-called compromise
Ellsworth amendment. It’s so poorly written that even Rep.
Louis Slaughter, D-NY, co-chair of the Congressional
Pro-Choice Caucus, said, “None of us really objected to the
Ellsworth language. In fact, we think he did a good job.”
Abortion will still be funded! </FONT><BR></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Ask them to support the
Stupak amendment which would make sure abortion isn’t
included. </FONT><BR></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>We desperately need you
to contact your congressperson. Please do it today. Phone
calls are great. Emails would be okay too. But whatever you
do, please do it right away. </FONT><BR></P>
<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Here’s a link to
contact your member of Congress: <A

<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Life Issues Institute
is a member of <I>Stop the Abortion Mandate</I>, a coalition
of pro-life organizations working to keep abortion and
rationing out of health care. Here’s a new ad that the group
produced. Please share it widely: <A

<P><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>I can’t overstress the
importance of acting now. So many lives hang in the balance.
And please pray for our pro-life members of the House of
Representatives. They will be under incredible pressure to
cave into the abortion industry in the hours ahead.
