Washington, D.C. (02 October 2009) – American Life League is proud to welcome the first ALL Associate group in the state of Oregon.
Based out of Portland, Pro-Life Action of Oregon has a momentous battle to fight in one of the country’s most pro-death states. Oregon was one of the first states to legalize abortion in 1969, and the first state to legalize physician–assisted suicide in 1994.
“Egregious atrocities committed against human beings’ lives are happening every day in the state of Oregon,” said American Life League president Judie Brown. “Side by side with Pro-Life Action of Oregon, we will fight unceasingly until every human being in Oregon is recognized and protected as a human person from their very creation.”
Pro-Life Action of Oregon, headed by founder Nina Rhea is an independent, Christian-centered, proactive project. The group is dedicated to providing information about local pro-life and personhood activities in Oregon as well as building a coalition of human rights activists. Pro-Life Action of Oregon also provides churches with pro-life information tables and guest speakers, efforts designed to recruit more individuals for active involvement in the pro-life cause.
“Pro-Life Action of Oregon proves that even within the darkest corners of the culture of death, there is hope for human rights and justice,” Brown said. “Even in Oregon, we will see the realization of the civil rights movement – we will achieve recognition of personhood for all human beings – from the smallest children in the womb to the sick, weak and elderly.”
Pro-Life Action of Oregon is now one of American Life League’s growing number of Associate groups that cover half the nation, plus groups in Canada and Africa.
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to natural death.
