Protecting Life
The right to life is foundational to all other rights. We believe that each human life is of inestimable value and worth, because every human being is created in the image and likeness of God. Thus, we work towards a Pennsylvania where life is fully protected in law and culture at every stage of development – from conception until natural death. This principle is outlined in the Declaration of Independence, which states that we are “endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights, and among them are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
