First Major Pro-Life Prayer-&-Picket Event Since Tiller Death will Focus on NEA Teacher Union Convention in San Diego & NEA State HQs Across America on July 2

Abortion is primary cause of economic recession, unemployment: especially for teachers



Pro-Lifers are invited to come picket the National Education Association leadership's pro-abortion policies, actions, and agenda at the San Diego Convention Center on July 2 between 10:00AM and 2:00PM and at NEA-State-Affiliate-HQs in cities across America from 11:00AM through 1:00PM (local times).

"Apparently, these peaceful, prayer-and-picket demonstrations against the NEA leadership's pro-abortion agenda will be the first major pro-life event since the death of George Tiller," said Bob Pawson of Pro-Life Educators and Students (PLEAS). "By peacefully and prayerfully picketing the NEA's convention and offices across America, pro-life citizens can publically reaffirm that we express our concern, compassion, and desire for true justice through lawful and constitutional means using reason and rational discourse in the American tradition of the public square."

"Media interest in pro-life demonstrations at the NEA convention and NEA-State-affiliate-offices should be high in the wake of Tiller's demise," said Gingi Edmonds of ProLife Opinion. "We're encouraging pro-life leaders, teachers, parents, students, clergy, and everybody to mobilize their pro-life groups, friends, and family members. President Obama may address NEA's 9,000 delegates to thank them for endorsing and getting him elected."

"Abortion is the primary factor causing America's economic recession," said Pawson, an NEA-NJEA teacher in Trenton, NJ. America is suffering the consequences for killing fifty-million people who are supposed to be among us today as teachers, producers, consumers, taxpayers, leaders, inventors, and problem-solvers. It's no surprise that a nation which slaughters nearly twenty percent of its future customers, investors, and entrepreneurs also kills its own economy. Wrong moral choices have negative consequences. Evil acts generate their own punishment."

"The NEA leadership's support for abortion has led to the destruction of fifty-million students and simultaneously eliminated hundreds of thousands of teaching careers and education-related jobs. Surely, some of those dead students were the ones God sent to cure AIDS, end world-hunger, and create clean-energy technologies," said Pawson. "NEA's leadership portrays itself as the premier advocate for children while collecting millions of dollars in dues from teachers for supposedly protecting their jobs. What hypocrisy!"

Edmonds said, "It is vital that individual pro-lifers reading or hearing this report commit themselves to personally attending and promoting these demonstrations. Your presence is needed and appreciated. Please recruit and activate others. Help rebuke the NEA leadership's abortion activism. Don't wait for leaders: be one."

Pro-Lifers spontaneously organizing demonstrations with twenty-plus picketers at NEA-affiliate-offices in other states and cities are asked to e-mail Pawson detailing location(s) and leadership contact info.

Pro-Life picketers should bring traditional pro-life signs as well as other messages like:
NEA: BE ABORTION-NEUTRAL
REPEAL NEA RES I-16
PRO-LIFE NEA MEMBER
PRO-LIFE TEACHER
PRO-LIFE STUDENT
PRO-LIFE PARENT & TAXPAYER
25 ABORTIONS=1 LOST CLASS
FORMER FETUS & CURRENT STUDENT
ABORTION=UNEMPLOYED TEACHERS
STOP NEA PRO-ABORTION AGENDA
NEA: SAVE FUTURE STUDENTS
SAVING BABIES SAVES TEACHERS' JOBS
