*Hold Your Horses! FOCA Battle Not Over Yet - Stop Illinois FOCA Apr 2, 2009, 4:51 pm
Some pro-lifers are thinking the FOCA battle is over because one of the main sponsors of the bill, Sara Feigenholtz, sent an email to a dedicated pro-life activist stating that the bill has been “recalled,” shelved by its supporters for the year.
However, let’s not count our chickens before they’re hatched. Last night, abortion advocates moved the bill into position so that it could be passed in 24 hours by holding it on Calendar Order of Second Reading - Short Debate.

*Noted chastity speaker Pam Stenzel speaks out on HB2354 - Stop Illinois FOCA Apr 1, 2009, 5:46 pm
Founder of Enlighten Communications, Inc. Pam Stenzel has spoken out about HB2354:
Obviously, this horrific piece of legislation would not only end the lives of thousands of innocent children, it would hurt thousands of women and their partners who will never be given “choice” or information about the consequences of [abortion] (which are both physical and emotional).
This deprives parents of their God-given responsibility to protect and teach their own children. It deprives every ph

Hatcher and to deliver the hundreds of petition signatures against HB2354 from her district. They used that time to bring a peaceful, prayerful protest against HB2354 and Rep. Hatcher’s stand in support of

*Who's running for school board? - Stop Illinois FOCA Mar 31, 2009, 12:26 pm
One of the central issues in the fight against HB2354 is the impact it could have on our kids by way of the mandatory sex-ed it would impose on all Illinois public schools.
With that in mind, who’s running for school board in your area? Do you know the candidates? Do you know where they stand on comprehensive sex-ed and other issues that effect Illinois families?
What can you do?
If you do know, post what you know about the candidates in the comments section below so others can benefit. If
*Illinois FOCA supporters are lying about the bill - Stop Illinois FOCA Mar 25, 2009, 8:41 pm
In a desperate bid to undermine the groundswell of opposition to HB2354, supporters of this pernicious piece of legislation have taken to lying about the bill. It’s no wonder. To plainly spell out the provisions of the bill is to expose its radicalism.
A case in point: Today I heard report of a interesting phone call received by a pro-lifer named Emily. Not only is Emily pro-life—she works at a pregnancy center. So when she received a call—on her cell phone, no less—about HB2354, she

*Rumors of Amendments Swirl, but FOCA Remains Unsalvageable - Stop Illinois FOCA Mar 19, 2009, 12:34 am
As co-sponsors of HB 2354 (the Illinois FOCA) begin dropping off the bill, abortion advocates realize that a new strategy is needed. They need to pretend to be accommodating and reasonable by making amendments to the bill. But this bill will never be palatable to Illinoisians because it’s so outrageous.
One rumor is that the immunity provision for abortion practitioners who injure pregnant women in botched abortions will be removed. Another is that some semblance of conscience protection
