Planned Parenthood

Fertilization / conception
Why are you pro-life?
Tell us!
True or false: Anything another student organization does on campus, we can do too.
True: The 1st Amendment protects your right to speak out just the same as other groups.
Email FreeSpeech@studentsforlife.org if you are being discriminated against because of your pro-life views.
Respond to, "It's my body, my choice!"
The baby has distinct DNA from you. It is dependent on your body, but no less valuable. Your rights end where someone else’s rights begin.
What pro-life organization prays for 40 days outside of abortion facilities?
40 Days for Life
True or false: Twins become twins at 10 weeks gestation.
False:
Fraternal twins (Two Eggs) - Both are conceived at different times, and are twins because they were in the womb together.
Identical twins (One egg, which split in two at conception) - Also conception, when the woman's egg is fertilized and forms the babies, the egg splits in two, which is why identical twins have identical DNA.
Name a pro-life charity in our community.
40 Days for Life, Pregnancy Help Centers, etc.
True or false: The pro-choice lobby fights against legislation to require informing chemical abortion patients that their abortion can be reversed shortly after the first pill is taken.
True! Planned Parenthood, NARAL Pro-Choice America, and others are quick to discount the lifesaving effects of Abortion Pill Reversal and do not wish to share the possibility of reversal with patients, telling them it's irreversable and not safe. Over 3,000 lives have been saved! (70+% of those who took mifeprostone, then Abortion Pill Reversal)
Respond to, "Don't like abortions? Then don't have one!"
We regularly advocate for things that don't effect us. You can be against slavery without being a slave, you can be against domestic abuse without being involved, etc. Another human being dies in an abortion and it's our job to be their voice.
Instead of Planned Parenthood, where can women can go for better, non-violent healthcare? Name one alternative option.
Many places! Federally Qualified Health Centers, Pregnancy Centers, and many other doctor's offices.
When does the heart begin to beat?
16-24 days following conception / at 3 weeks

What is the Hyde Amendment?
The Hyde Amendment prevents our federal tax dollars from funding abortions.
Respond to, "chemical abortion is safe."
1. When the result is someone's death (they baby's), it should never be considered safe.
2. Women can get unsafe, unmarked, and unregulated abortion pills from foreign countries via mail.
3. In some states women can legally get chemical abortion pills via telemed appointments. No confirmation of pregnancy, testing for Rh negative, or confirming how far along she is. You don't have to see the doctor in person, ever.
4. It has killed 24 women since 2000 and injured thousands more. (That we know of).
5. It has a 5% failure rate.
6. Chemical abortions are the modern-day back-alley abortion.

Who is your Students for Life Regional Coordinator?
Ms. Faith Elwonger is the Texas Regional Coordinator!
What did Roe's reversal do for the states?
It gave states power to legislate abortion without federal restrictions.
Respond to, "What about overpopulation?"
Overpopulation is a myth. Even if the world were overpopulated, that would not justify killing.
