Dear Rev Kenneth Martin,

If a pregnant woman is murdered, and her unborn child killed in the process, how many victims do you count?

We count TWO - two victims of a heinous crime, two deaths for family and friends to mourn. But pro-abortion advocates have said there's only ONE victim - the mother.

That is why WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT TODAY for a powerful bill in Congress - the Unborn Victims of Violence Act - that will provide legal consequences for the death of these unborn children. Please give an online donation right now.

Our legislative team is working hard to see this bill passed by Congress ...

... because WE MUST TAKE A STAND for these unborn victims of violent crime!

The Unborn Victims of Violence Act would make death or injury to a preborn child during the commission of a federal crime of violence a SEPARATE CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

Almost 30 states have already enacted laws that recognize unborn victims of at least some violent crimes.

Now we must take this protection to a FEDERAL LEVEL!

* The bill has already passed the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee.

* Both the full House and Senate are expected to vote on it soon.

* The President has already said he would sign it into law.

But the pro-abortion lobby is OUTRAGED.

They will do everything in their power to keep unborn babies from being recognized as a person -- as human life....

They are actually attempting to draw a distinction between murder and abortion based on the mother's decision.

The high-profile murder case from California of victim Laci Peterson in her eighth month of pregnancy sparked debate on whether the baby's death should be considered murder -- as if it would have been legal if she had agreed to the death of the child inside her.

Pro-abortionists are even expected to introduce a competing bill - that ONLY recognizes the mother's death as a crime!

And if they lose in Congress, they will take this battle to the COURTS.

So our legal team is already preparing for any legal challenges that are sure to come should the bill become law.

WE NEED YOUR HELP - through giving and prayers.

Your online gift today will help the ACLJ fight to legally recognize the lives of unborn children.

You will also help us continue our work to protect the ban on partial-birth abortion ... and all our involvement nationwide for your religious liberties and constitutional freedom.

So PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY TODAY through our secure website.

Thank you for joining us in the fight for life!
