From Todd and from my mom

From Todd Bolen, on his blog:

One of the most damaging things that Obama could do as president is to sign the Freedom of Choice Act. He has promised that the first thing he’ll do in office is to sign it. This bill would wipe away every restriction on abortion nationwide. This would eradicate state and federal laws that the majority of Americans support, such as:
Bans on Partial Birth Abortion
Requirements that women be given information about the risks of getting an abortion
Only licensed physicians can perform abortions
Parents must be informed and give consent to their minor daughter’s abortion
What can you do? You can sign this petition. Perhaps if enough people do, Obama will listen.


From my mom, in an e-mail after I sent her the link to the FOCA petition; I didn't ask her, but I'm pretty sure she wouldn't mind me sharing it with you all:

Hi Jennica,
FOCA stands for the freedom of choice act. It makes abortion legal without any restrictions. I am very much afraid that it will pass and there is nothing we can do about it. The dem's have the votes they need now. This is not to say that we shouldn't make our voices heard and do all within our power to protect the unborn and their mothers also.
This new government we have elected is going to bring about such changes as we haven't seen in decades, and few, if any, will be righteous changes. Maybe it will spur the Christians on to tell others about the Lord. The Lord is the only deliverance this nation has now. Actually, He has always been our only hope.
His love, however, endures forever.
