Party Candidates and the Platform on Protecting Innocent Human Life

Strengthening Families, Protecting Life and Promoting Health > Protecting Innocent Human Life > Party Candidates and the Platform on Protecting Innocent Human Life
We implore our Party to support, financially or with in-kind contributions, only those candidates who support protecting innocent human life. Further, we strongly encourage the State Republican Executive Committee to hear and recognize the longstanding and overwhelmingly consistent voice of the grass roots and revise its by-laws to make this action binding on our Party.

This duplicates the Enforcing the Platform plank.
