As
this year 2014 comes to an end, I will present this Pro-Life Article from Live Action, a Pro-Life Organization that I endorsed:
Live Action in 2014

9 reasons why 2014 was a
great year for pro-life
The
pro-life movement experienced a milestone year, with huge national victories
across the board. From a record number of pro-life legislators elected to
Congress to wins protecting the freedom of conscience and pro-life legislation,
2014 was a benchmark year for pro-life. Not all pro-life victories of the past
year were front-page news. Like Live Action investigations, some of the biggest
pro-life victories happen “undercover.”
Here
are nine ways you made a difference with Live
Action in 2014!
9) Millions of people saw the ugly
truth about abortion.
Live
Action’s groundbreaking investigations into the abortion industry shaped the
dialogue on abortion. In 2014, Live Action’s “What is Human?” video went viral,
obtaining
millions of views on Facebook. This exposé, released as part of Live
Action’s Inhuman investigation,
revealed the ugly truth about late-term abortion through taped, undercover
conversations with the abortionists who perform them. “What is Human?” details
the abortion industry’s refusal to recognize the humanity of pre-born children,
as well as the willingness of abortionists to violently slaughter babies in
egregious late-term abortion procedures.

8) The pro-life movement is resonating
with Millennials
Pro-life
is becoming the social justice movement of this generation. Due to
technological advances and the power of media, hearts and minds are changing
about abortion. Did you know that most of Live Action’s Facebook audience is
under the age of 25, with a sizable number between the ages of 13 and 17? This
is Planned Parenthood’s target market. But Live Action is reaching these kids
first, and ruining Big Abortion’s chances at hundreds of thousands of potential
customers. Live Action’s worldwide media movement is mobilizing this generation
as an active voice for life!
7) Planned Parenthood’s legacy of
abuse was revealed.
In
spring of 2014, Live Action released a report and video
detailing six years of investigation into the lies, corruption, and scandal
within Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion provider. Funded heavily
by tax dollars, the abortion giant’s legacy is one of putting profit before the
health and well-being of women and children. Live Action investigations unearthed numerous
violations by Planned Parenthood, including rampant cover-up of sexual
abuse, willingness to aid and abet sex-traffickers, readiness to perform
infanticide and abortions based on gender and race, and peddling medical
misinformation and manipulation.
Live
Action sent a report
of findings from its six-year investigation into Planned Parenthood to each
legislator on Capitol Hill, detailing the troubling abuses that are endemic in
the Planned Parenthood corporation. From press conferences exposing abuses
within the abortion industry to rallying alongside thousands at the March for
Life in Washington, D.C., Live Action stood for life in 2014!

6) Pro-lifers across America spread
the message in their communities.
The
pro-life message is getting into the hands of young people across the United
States! Live Action’s free pro-life student magazine, The Advocate,
was distributed to 250,000 people in schools and communities across the nation.
In fact, The Advocate
increased printing and distribution 235 percent in 2014! Founded by Live Action
President Lila Rose, The
Advocate shares the truth about abortion in a compelling and
visually engaging publication.

5) Media couldn’t ignore the reality
of the abortion industry.
Live
Action’s undercover investigations insisted that the media report on the abuses
and scandals blanketing the abortion industry. From local news coverage to CNN,
Fox News, and The Blaze,
Live Action boldly shared the truth about abortion and the dignity of each
human life. In 2014, Live Action made headlines with groundbreaking undercover
investigations, bold op-eds, and debates and interviews on national television,
radio stations, and publications. Thanks to your support, even the pro-abortion
mainstream media has to cover what we’re doing. And the more they cover, the
more America sees what an injustice abortion really is.

Lila Rose, president of Live Action,
is one of the pro-life movement’s leading influencers. Rose founded Live Action
at the age of 15 and has directed numerous groundbreaking investigations into
the abortion industry. Rose is a regular guest on The O’Reilly Factor, Hannity, The Laura Ingraham Show,
and many other national TV and radio programs. Her work has been featured on
practically every major news outlet, from CBS to CNN, and from the Los Angeles Times to the Washington Post.

4) Pro-lifers became the media.
While
much of mainstream media fails to report the truth about abortion, Live Action’s
news arm is boldly sharing the value and dignity of the human person. Live Action News is a leading pro-life
publication, reaching hundreds of thousands of readers each week. In 2014, Live
Action News reached a record number of readers with informative, hard-hitting
pieces related to current events and the sanctity of human life.
3) Pro-lifers shared the beauty of life with their friends.
Good friends share things they like with the people they care about. This year, Live Action’s over 700,000 Facebook fans and over 25,000 Twitter fans engaged friends and family in discussion on the sanctity of life and the atrocity of abortion. Those hundreds of thousands of people are sharing Live Action’s content with others, multiplying the reach of the message into the millions!

2) Parents learned about Planned Parenthood’s dangerous sex
advice for kids.
Live
Action’s SexEd
investigation exposed Planned Parenthood’s dangerous sex advice for
children. SexEd revealed Planned Parenthood staffers counseling minors as
young as 15 on how to visit porn shops, obtain sex toys – illegal for minors
under municipal laws – and experiment with BDSM (bondage and discipline, dominance
and submission, sadism and masochism). Investigations detailed Planned
Parenthood staffers encouraging minors to engage in violent sexual
role-play. Planned Parenthood’s promotion of truly frightening
pseudo-sexual behavior popularized by the pornographic book series Fifty Shades of Grey is
alarming for both parents and children.
1) Planned Parenthood was held
accountable.
Live
Action’s investigative journalism into the abortion industry sparked national
attention. Following the release of Live Action’s SexEd investigation in 2014,
Colorado attorney general John Suthers announced
that attorneys would review a Live Action undercover video that details a
Planned Parenthood clinician coaching an investigator, posing as a 15-year-old,
in dangerous sexual activity. Suthers’s announcement came on the heels of a lawsuit
filed against Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains for failure to
report child sexual abuse. The probe into Planned Parenthood also came in the
wake of troubling details highlighted by Live Action’s SexEd investigation.
