Subject: Amend Rand Paul Life Begins at Conception Act S.583
Dear [Your Congressman/Senator Inserted Here]
While we appreciate the declaration of principles that the Life at Conception Act represents, far more is needed than mere words to stop the daily killing of thousands of the weakest and most helpless among us. Immediate congressional action is urgently needed. This is a matter of life and death for millions of our fellow human beings. That’s why we are petitioning you to do two important things:
1) Amend the Act to include a strict requirement that the several States permanently shut down any facility, business, or institution that violates equal protection and due process protections for the right to life of all persons as yet unborn, as per the explicit, imperative requirement of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, to wit: "No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." 2) Strip the U.S. Code of any and all sections which violate equal protection and due process protections for the right to life of all persons as yet unborn, as per the explicit words of the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, to wit:
"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law." For example, in order to come into compliance with the Act’s statement of principles, which already rightly recognizes the self-evident personhood of children as yet unborn, the Code must be stripped of provisions like the Laci Peterson law of 2004, Title 18, Chapter 1, §1841 and Title 10, Chapter 22 §919a, which, while rightly defining the child as an individual person, then allows the killing of certain classes of those innocent persons via the practice of human abortion. Without these amendments the legislation accomplishes little beyond mere political posturing.
