Pro-Life Group Launches 23-City ‘Votes Have Consequences’ Bus Tour

by CitizenLink Staff

The Susan B. Anthony List – a pro-life political action group – will begin a bus tour on Tuesday targeting pro-life Democrats who voted for President Obama’s health care reform.

As written, the health-care law allows federal dollars to pay for abortions.

The “Votes Have Consequences” tour will make stops in 23 cities in Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania.

“This election cycle has turned out to be dramatically different from the one in which we began,” SBA List President Marjorie Dannenfelser said. “Before the health care vote, we conducted polling and launched a media tour in (targeted) Democrats’ districts in an effort to support their pro-life convictions. Then, they voted for the largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade.  (Our) latest polling shows that five months of a long, hot summer have not burned off any voter intensity on the issue. Our “Votes Have Consequences” bus tour will ensure that voters understand exactly what their members of Congress did to undermine their convictions and those of their pro-life constituents.”

CitizenLink Senior Vice President Tom Minnery, one of the guest speakers, will join the tour for two of the week-long event.

“Pro-life Democrats in Congress cannot hide behind the President’s executive order that purports to prohibit abortion funding in health care. It does no such thing, and we’ll be telling Indiana voters the truth.”
