I'm here because I'm for life
and not

Jane Degnan

I just truly believe tha tlife
begins at
the moment of conception.
THOSE GATHERED SPEAKING
OUT AGAINST THE
REPRODUCTIVE PRIVACY ACT
AND THE REPRODUCTIVE
HEALTHCARE ACT.
PROVIDENCE REP EDITH
AJELLO IS THE SPONSOR OF
THE LATTER.
Rep. Edith Ajello
D-Providence
All the law allows is what's
currently
allowed in Rhode Island as a
result
lf Roe V Wade
Tyler Rowley
President, Servants of Christ
for Life
It's clearly not a codification
of Roe
V Wade. That bill wpould be a
lot
simpler to write because that's
all
you'd have to say.
TYLER ROWLEY OF SERVANTS
OF CHRIST FOR LIFE ARGUES
THE BILL REMOVES
PROTECTIONS FOR UNBORN
BABIES AND ALLOWS FOR
ABORTION UP UNTIL NINE
MONTHS.
Rep. Edith Ajello
D-Providence
That's nonsense.
Tyler Rowley
President, Servants of Christ
for Life
They're lying about who supports
it.
They're lying about what the
bill
does.
THE SUPPORTERS WHO
GATHERED HOPEFUL
LAWMAKERS WILL HEAR THEIR
VOICES --
Carey Jeffrey
Citizens for Life RI
This turnout is beyond what we
could imagine and it's just to
let the
lawmakers know that people
oppose
these bills.
AND RIGHT NOW NEIHTER
BILL HAS BEEN
SCHEDULED FOR A
COMMITTEE VOTE. KK
EWN.
