The Jan. 13 issue of The Observer covered two current threats to life in the state of Illinois: the Jan. 6 opening of the Rockford Family Planning Center and House Bill 4664, Senate Amendment #3, which proposes a number of changes that advance abortion in Illinois abortion law. Find more information on page 3 and page 9, respectively. 

 

You can answer the call to advocate for life with these actions: 

 

-- Join a pro-life rally Jan. 21, 11 a.m.-12:15 p.m., outside the abortion facility at 611 Auburn St. Sponsored by the Rockford Family Initiative. 

 

-- Find your legislator and add your voice to opposing the House bill at https://www.ilcatholic.org/take-action/action-center/?vvsrc=%2fAddress
