Students for Life Action Calls for Reintroduction of the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act
from Epiphany · host Vanessa Denha Garmo
You’ve likely seen the international conversation sparked by the abortion of a Down Syndrome baby by social media influencer Jesse Ridgway, when he and his wife made getting pregnant and then aborting a baby with a diagnosis of Down Syndrome both a click-bait event and then the beginning of a huge and on-going controversy. Students for Life Action President Kristan Hawkins first called for a re-introduction of an enhanced PRENDA to address the issue.“’The Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act‘ affirms a simple but profound truth: every human life has inherent dignity and worth. In a world where advancing technology can be used to discriminate against the most vulnerable before birth, this legislation calls us back to our deepest moral commitment that no child should be judged or rejected because of who they are or their abilities. Protecting preborn children from discrimination is not just a policy choice, but a reflection of our national conscience and our belief in equal human dignity for all.”Kristan Hawkins is the CEO of the Pro-Life Generation, and President of Students for Life of America and Students for Life Action. Since launching the organization in 2006, Kristan has spent nearly two decades building a national network of more than 1,635+ campus Students for Life groups in all 50 states, training more than 250,000 students to stand up for Life.Under her leadership, Students for Life of America has become the largest pro-life youth organization in the world, and Students for Life Action has grown into a force to be reckoned with on Capitol Hill and in statehouses across the nation.
