Susan B. Anthony List launches statewide canvassing efforts to expose Donnelly’s abortion extremism
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Local and national pro-life activists will hold press conferences outside the offices of Sen. Donnelly on Thursday to draw attention to the Senator’s views on abortion which are dramatically out of step with Indiana voters. The group will be led by Sue Swayze Liebel, Indiana lobbyist and State Director for Susan B. Anthony List (SBA List), as well as international pro-life speaker Jill Stanek, a former nurse, now SBA List’s National Campaign Chair.
SBA List’s Indiana field team has already begun educating and mobilizing voters for the 2018 midterm election. SBA List canvassers previously knocked on more than 1.1 million doors in the 2016 election cycle.
Swayze Liebel and Stanek will be joined by the following pro-life leaders on Thursday, November 16:
South Bend – 10:00 AM
205 West Colfax Ave.
South Bend, IN 46601
Additional Speaker: Antonio Marchi of St. Joseph County Right to Life
Fort Wayne – 2:00 PM
203 East Berry St.
Fort Wayne, IN 46802
Additional Speakers: State Senator Liz Brown, Abigail Lorenzen of Indiana Right to Life
“Senator Donnelly tells Hoosiers he opposes taxpayer funding of abortion but in Washington he’s voted repeatedly to continue sending tax dollars to Planned Parenthood, the country’s biggest abortion business,” said Sue Swayze Liebel, recently named SBA List’s Indiana State Director. “His votes are dramatically out of step with our pro-life state. That’s why the SBA List field team has already begun knocking on doors and talking to voters about Donnelly’s true nature.”
“Planned Parenthood ends to life of more than 300,000 babies each year, and wounds that many mothers,” added Jill Stanek, National Campaign Chair at SBA List. “They are under investigation for their role in the harvest and sale of baby body parts. Hoosiers deserve a Senator who will side with them, unlike Sen. Donnelly who stands with the brutal abortion lobby.”
Susan B. Anthony List and its partner super PAC, Women Speak Out spent more than $18 million in the 2016 election cycle, knocking on more than 1.1 million doors in battleground states to defeat Hillary Clinton and maintain a pro-life Senate. SBA List is dedicated to pursuing policies and electing candidates who will reduce and ultimately end abortion. To that end, the SBA List emphasizes the education, promotion, mobilization, and election of pro-life women. The SBA List is a network of more than 600,000 pro-life Americans nationwide.
