• "For the past 43 years we’ve been living the consequences of Roe v Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that effectively legalized abortion on demand....no court decision, no law and no political lobby can ever change the truth about when human life begins and the sanctity that God attaches to each and every human person, born or unborn....the Obama White House has been extraordinary for its refusal to compromise on anything involving so-called 'reproductive rights,' and for its belligerent hostility to prolife and religious liberty concerns....if we really believe that abortion is an intimate act of violence, then we can’t aim at anything less than ending abortion.... may God bless the Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation, and send it the supporters and resources and generous donors it needs, because we’ve never needed its witness and its service to human dignity more than we do today" (Archbishop Chaput, 9/29/16).
