Join us in thanking the Department of Health and Human Services
Good news! The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has announced that it will STOP research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) using fetal tissue from aborted babies. Instead, HHS will fund and accelerate ethical alternatives for medical research!
Undoubtedly, the voices of pro-lifers like YOU played a part in prompting this change. It is important to let HHS Secretary Azar know of our gratitude for HHS’s actions, which will protect the bodies of aborted babies from being further victimized. Please take a few moments to send a thank you note to Secretary Azar.
In response to this announcement, Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann of Kansas City, Kansas, Chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ (USCCB) Committee on Pro-Life Activities issued a statement:
