4 URGENT: ACTION REQUIRED In his annual budget, Governor Cuomo included a radical bill (S.7511) that would eliminate virtually all limitations on abortion in New York State. It would ensure that abortion is legal through all nine months of pregnancy, for any reason: it would allow for more late-term abortions, even though studies show that a fetus experiences pain at 20 weeks: it would eliminate the law that requires that a baby born alive after an abortion be given adequate health care, even though as many as 5% to 10% of babies in late term abortions are born alive; it would permit non-doctors to do abortions so even if an abortion was against a mother s will (involuntary or coerced), or if an unborn child is deliberately targeted for an act of violence, it could not be prosecuted. New York State already has far too many abortions. We don t need broader abortion laws. We need our law to respect human life at all stages. This is particularly dangerous, because the law requires a budget to be passed by April 1st. Please contact your state legislators to oppose this extreme bill. To do so, visit and click on Take Action. You can also go to to keep up on the latest developments. HOLY ROSARY BAZAAR 2018 The cold weather makes it hard to believe, but we are less than three months away from our Annual Holy Rosary Bazaar!!!
