Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we cut funds that feed the hungry. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we cut funds that educate our children. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we tolerate injustice. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we are killing our planet. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when children are separated from their parents at the border.
Anti-abortion is not pro-life when the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we turn our backs on refugees. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when people lack access to health care. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when when we ignore violence toward others. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we don’t show respect toward those whose skin color, beliefs, or political party are different from ours. Anti-abortion is not pro-life when we do not wear masks to protect each other from COVID-19.
Anti-abortion? Then be pro-life!
