There is still an organized effort to marginalize the sanctity of life, and its results are seen with the decaying values of those areas controlled by the minions of deceit. While the leftist women cry about their "V" rights being infringed, we still need to stand up for the lives they would so easily snuff out.  Right To Life of Michigan sends an update for Thanksgiving.

During this time of Thanksgiving, I want to give you an update on the work of Right to Life of Michigan and to thank you for your involvement.

Together our accomplishments have changed hearts and brought hope to our state.

• In 2013, five Michigan abortion businesses closed their doors. We have helped close 10 abortion businesses in the last 23 months. Back in the late 1980's, there were approximately 72 free-standing abortion clinics operating in our state. Today, only 28 remain.
  
• We are very close to "opting out" of mandatory abortion provisions found in the Affordable Care Act. Together we collected more than 316,000 signatures to initiate the Abortion Insurance Opt-Out Act.  
  
• Michigan abortions performed in 2012 represent the second-lowest level since official record-keeping began back in 1976.
  
• Teen abortions are down 73 percent since 1990.
  
• Overall, we have cut the abortion rate in Michigan by more than half since the peak year of 1987.

While it is exciting to note a few of our accomplishments for 2013, we know our work is far from complete.
