Respect Life Ministry - Diocese of Belleville at 2620 Lebanon Ave., Bldg #2, Belleville, IL 62221 US - Contact the White House and Legislators

President Obama has stated that he is ready to hear all Americans and to consider their views.  He can only do this when we are engaged and express our support of things that are consistent with what we believe or clearly articulate our concerns about things we oppose, preferably with alternative solutions.  To contact the White House click here.  You will find a form to fill out to send an e-mail, the address to send a letter, and a phone number as well.  Also on the right of the page is a blog link.  Please remember to speak truth with love!  Blessings as you engage...

The new administration has expressed a comittment to listen to all Americans, but that can only work when everyone engages.  People are encouraged to go to the new administration’s web site above and be an active voice in the conversation on the subject of the proposed vision of “reproductive rights” (click here to reach the Change.gov web page where the proposed document and thousands of comments are...click here to go directly to the document).  NOTE: Please be sure to look beyond the beginning bullets!  The same concerns related to FOCA are reinforced in the proposed policies supported in this document.  Please be alert to how the details of the plan can easily be inserted into a variety of types of bills.  This plan violates the values and conscience of the majority of Americans (click here for the USCCB survey results).  Please remember always to speak truth with love in your comments. Thank you!
