Dear Friends:
Nearly 60 million people tuned into last night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia between Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democrat nominee, and former President Donald Trump, the Republican candidate.
But what I’m writing to you about today is about neither political candidates nor political parties. Not even the Election. I’m reaching out to you about abortion and our ongoing quest to save preborn babies.
One of the more pointed parts of last night’s exchange involved the now half-century plus debate over the sanctity of life. Specifically, ABC moderator Linsey Davis erroneously stated, “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born.”
Ms. Davis is mistaken. Babies who are born after failed abortions have been legally abandoned and have died. That’s infanticide. Earlier today, I reached out to Almin Karamehmedovic, the president of ABC News, and requested the network issue an immediate correction.
As I mentioned in my letter (which is below), the “Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act” – which would ensure babies born from failed abortions receive lifesaving care – has been repeatedly blocked in Congress.
Focus on the Family remains committed to serving vulnerable mothers and saving as many preborn babies as possible. In fact, our Option Ultrasound project has saved over 500,000 lives since the program began. Your generosity is allowing us to minister and share the Good News of Jesus Christ and bring the hope He brings to those navigating dark times.
This is a moral issue. We will never grow weary in our efforts, and we remain grateful to you for your partnership. Please join us in prayer. If you are able, a financial gift today will help us continue building on the momentum.
God bless you.
Jim Daly
President, Focus on the Family

-Thank you for speaking up, standing up and telling the truth about the reality of abortion and murder of babies in this country. We need to stop calling it by the euphemisms that allow people to hide behind the killing of babies. Its murder. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We need more people to speak up and push back against the lies. How do we fight lies? With the truth.
