June 8, 2012, in anticipation of the United States Supreme Court’s ruling on the constitutionality of Obama Care, tens of thousands of Americans will take to the streets in a second public protest against the Obama administration’s Health and Human Services mandate that forces even religious institutions such as Roman Catholic hospitals and universities to offer contraception, sterilizations and abortion-inducing drugs in their employee health insurance plans contrary to their religious beliefs and doctrines. The next rally will take place Friday, June 8th, at 12 noon in all times zones.

LifeNews: The Coalition to Stop the HHS Mandate, which is being coordinated by the Illinois-based Pro-Life Action League and includes multiple pro-life, social conservative, and religious groups, including Human Life International, The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, the Alliance Defense Fund, and Priests for Life; have organized the “Stand Up For Religious Freedom” rallies “in defense of religious freedom and STAND UP against the Obama administration’s HHS mandate at federal building in cities across the country.”

LifeSiteNews: Monica Miller of Citizens for a Pro-Life Society and Eric Scheidler of the Pro-Life Action League announced last week that the next Stand Up for Religious Freedom Rallies, which drew over 63,000 Americans in 146 cities on March 23, will take place on June 8.

LifeSiteNews.com: “Ever since Barack Obama came into office there has been an aggressive effort to undermine peaceful pro-life activity by casting pro-life activists as terrorists,” Scheidler said. “We’ve seen the Department of Homeland Security listing pro-lifers as potential terrorists. We’ve seen special meetings between the FBI and pro-abortion groups.”

Pro-Life Action League: The fact is, abortion rates haven’t gone up in the region of the country where pro-life activism is most common: the Midwest, where 85% of abortion providers report “harassment” (i.e., life-saving pro-life activism). Rates there have declined 6%. An exception within the region is Illinois, where the abortion rate rose 9%.
