Wenatchee Right To Life fully supports the Supreme Court’s decision that the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion and to return the authority to regulate abortion to the people and their elected representatives. https://www.supremecourt.gov/
We will continue to advance our mission of promoting the intrinsic value of life from conception to natural death through educational programs and community outreach.
We're happy to announce that the 2nd Annual Golf for Life Tournament will be held on Friday, September 16, 2022 at the much-improved Highlander Golf Course.
This year's shotgun start will be on every hole, so everyone will finish at the same time. The maximum score allowed on each hole will be 2 over par to speed play!
Please click here for more details.
Last year's tournament allowed us to promote life on the electronic devices of 18-30 year-olds through digital advertising provided by Cherry Creek Media.
No matter how hard life may become, all human life is precious.
You are not alone. Choose life.
Wenatchee Right to Life Response to Leak of SCOTUS Opinion on Dobbs v Jackson
WRTL Vision and Mission Statements are as follows:
VISION STATEMENT
We envision a thriving community where all human life is respected and protected from conception to natural death.
MISSION STATEMENT
We promote the intrinsic value of life from conception to natural death through education and peaceful activities.
To this end, I’d like to take a few minutes to respond to the recent “leak” of the draft opinion of the conservative justices of the Supreme Court of the United States. Because there is already so much information (and misinformation) available, I will endeavor to glean what I can from legitimate sources and provide facts and action points that we can take. We should view everything we see and hear with caution and pray for discernment and clarity.
-
Is this leaked document real? Never before in the modern history of the Court has something like this happened. If it is real, it’s from opinions written 2-3 months ago and would be expected to have changes made.
-
The obvious reason for this leak is to drive a wedge even further between the 2 sides of the issue and to attempt to intimidate those justices through the uproar that would naturally follow something of this magnitude. As we all know, if Roe v Wade is overturned it is not the end of abortion. The decision would move back to the States (as I believe the founders of our great nation intended). Washington State Governor Jay Inslee has already promised that the state would provide sanctuary for women outside the state seeking abortions and would explore ways to codify abortion rights in the state’s Constitution.
-
Pro-abortion groups have new ammunition in their fight to keep abortion legal at any time for any reason. The rhetoric is intense:
Alexis McGill Johnson, CEO of Planned Parenthood said, “Let's be clear: Abortion is legal. It is still your right. This leaked opinion is horrifying and unprecedented, and it confirms our worst fears: that the Supreme Court is prepared to end the constitutional right to abortion by overturning Roe v. Wade.
While we have seen the writing on the wall for decades, it is no less devastating and comes just as anti-abortion rights groups unveil their ultimate plan to ban abortion nationwide. Understand that Planned Parenthood and our partners have been preparing for every possible outcome in this case and are built for the fight. Planned Parenthood health centers remain open, abortion is currently still legal, and we will continue to fight like hell to protect the right to access safe, legal abortion.”
President Joe Biden bemoans the opinion, "The idea that we're going to make a judgment that is going to say that no one can make the judgment to choose to abort a child, based on a decision by the Supreme Court, I think goes way overboard," he said. It appears to be lost on so many that the original decision by the Supreme Court, which resulted in over 63,000,000 innocent children being killed, was “way overboard” from its inception!
Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi issued a joint statement saying in part, "If the report is accurate, the Supreme Court is poised to inflict the greatest restriction of rights in the past fifty years -- not just on women but on all Americans."
The pro-choice side is running scared. Now more than ever we need to take an even stronger stand for ALL life, from conception to natural death.
