Pro-Life Wisconsin joins American Life League in telling the truth about contraception

Pro-Life Wisconsin joins American Life League in telling the truth about contraception
Pro-Life Wisconsin is joining American Life League in telling the truth about contraception and its link to abortion on demand. State Director Peggy Hamill, representing Pro-Life Wisconsin, will speak at a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., at 9 a.m. on June 6 in conjunction with American Life League. Nationwide activities will be announced to mark the 43rd anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court decision Griswold v. Connecticut, which was handed down on June 7, 1965.
“Pro-Life Wisconsin is excited to see our denunciation of Griswold v. Connecticut taken to the national level,” said Peggy Hamill. “It is crucial to mark June 7 with a symbolic time of silence to memorialize everything we as Americans have lost. The deadly connection between contraception and abortion is all too real. ”
When the Supreme Court ruled on the Griswold v. Connecticut case, it set a legal precedent for claiming the Constitution grants women the right to privacy in matters of sexual practice. This meant Connecticut and the rest of the United States could not stop a married woman from obtaining birth control pills. The precursor to Roe v. Wade, the ruling paved the way for abortion on demand in the U.S.
Pro-Life Wisconsin prayer services marking Griswold v. Connecticut will be held:
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Dane County will observe June 7 with Mass at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church at 8 a.m., followed by a holy hour. From 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. there will be a prayer vigil at Planned Parenthood on Orin Rd. in Madison.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Chippewa Valley will gather for a prayer service at Planned Parenthood, 1231 Menomonee St. in Eau Claire, on June 7 at 11 a.m.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Jefferson County will gather at the Planned Parenthood in Johnson Creek on June 7 from 7 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Juneau County will gather at Family Planning Health Services, 234-A W. State St. in Mauston, on June 10 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Milwaukee County will gather at Planned Parenthood on Hwy. 100 and Lincoln Ave in West Allis, on June 7 from 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Outagamie County will gather at Planned Parenthood in Appleton, 508 W Wisconsin Ave, on June 7 at 2 p.m.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin Walworth County will hold a prayer vigil on June 7, from 12 p.m. to 1:00, at the Planned Parenthood in Delavan.
