In support of 'All Lives Matter Act'

The revelation of Planned Parenthood's horrible travesties against the most innocent of us has awakened a contingent of Americans. Missourians for the Unborn was created to address this generational genocide. MFTU is a coalition of individuals and organizations united to be the voice of the unborn, proclaiming "All Lives Matter" and working diligently to protect the life of every Missourian. This is a bold action, but we believe we have been called for such a time as this. The first step in our plan is to show all our elected representatives in Jefferson City how many of their constituents are truly concerned for the lives of the most vulnerable of us, the unborn, and that many Missourians support a bill to protect our unborn children. We are collecting signatures from across the state. At the beginning of the 2016 legislative session, Rep. Mike Moon (District 157) will present these signed petitions to the General Assembly to coincide with a bill he will be filing named the "All Lives Matter Act."

If you would like to be a part of this statewide movement, you can find the petition online at missouriansfortheunborn.org.

In order for MFTU to succeed, it is necessary for the Missouri General Assembly to stand behind this. As many Missourians have heard their representatives claim to be Pro-Life, now is the time to put action behind that rhetoric. Sign the petition and contact your representatives in the General Assembly, asking that they support and co-sponsor Rep. Moon's bill No. 1794.
