Say NO to Fresno City Council Honoring Abortion

The Fresno City Council was considering a resolution to honor and advocate for legalized abortion as a constitutional right. This potential resolution would not institute any new law, initiate any new program, or provide any kind of tangible city funding or support for abortion. Nevertheless, it would be a public declaration by our city affirming abortion as a constitutional right to be celebrated and defended, rather than its reality: an attack on the lives of the innocent, and a disservice to women. The Council is scheduled to hear this resolution on February 10. 

In response to the resolution and the potential for it to be considered again, Bishop Brennan will be joining Right to Life Executive Director, John Gerardi, City Council member Gary Bredefeld and other Central Valley Faith leaders for a press conference, taking place on Tuesday February 8^th at 10:00 a.m in front of the Veteran’s Memorial at City Hall.
 

We encourage Fresno residents simply to make a quick phone call to your Council member: Identify yourself as a resident of Fresno and of the relevant Council district, and urge your Council member to vote NO on any Reproductive Freedom resolution.
