A MESSAGE TO LT. GOVERNOR MCNALLY AND SPEAKER CAMERON SEXTON AND
ALL MEMBERS OF THE TN GENERAL ASSEMBLY: PROTECT THE HUMAN LIFE PROTECTION ACT!
Tennessee’s Human Life Protection ACT (HLPA), is one of the most protective measures in the nation and is already saving unborn children and their mothers from the tragedy of abortion. Since it went into effect, an estimated 910 lives per month have been saved because of this law. We, the undersigned, urge you to keep this life-saving law intact and not do anything to weaken it. The Human Life Protection Act stands on solid ground both from a legal and scientific perspective. Keep protecting LIFE in Tennessee!

The State Chapter TNRIGHTTOLIFE has asked local Chapters to start hosting baby bottle drives. Since, 2020 they have almost ceased. We believe this can change. This is a VITAL way that our State Chapter receives Funds. In order to encourage Local Chapters to participate the State is offering the Lawrence County Chapter 75% of the proceeds from new churches the 1st Year and 50% proceeds after that. Lawrence County has never received proceeds from Bottle Drives. This could have a MAJOR impact in our County if people get involved. If you would like to Host a Baby Bottle Drive please reach out to us.
