RE:
PROPOSED HOUSE BILL NO. --- REGULATING THE TERMINATION OF HUMAN LIFE
- PREBORN CHILDREN,
IN THE FIFTY-EIGHTH LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF NORTH
DAKOTA.
Dear
Mr. Dodson:
I am enclosing a
copy of Representative Sandvig’s above-referenced pro life bill and
hereby formally appeal to you and your organization for your complete
and unequivocal assistance and support for the passage of this most
crucial human life legislation.
I
am confident the vast majority of our fellow North Dakotans know and
understand that human life does begin at conception and that abortion
at “any” stage is nothing less than murder and a direct violation of
God’s 5th Commandment!
Mr. Dodson, I feel
deeply and profoundly saddened that our current laws governing the
life of unborn children require me to seek your aid. Nonetheless, I
believe the time for change is now and confidently approach you and
the North Dakota Catholic Conference for your legislative time and
support. I am certain your personal skills and the tremendous weight
of the North Dakota Catholic Conference would be of enormous value and
benefit to the passage of this very “basic” human life proposal.
Please do not
hesitate to call me with any questions. I look forward to your
response.
With
Best Wishes,
Peter B. Crary
Attorney at Law
