Breakthrough in SA Parliament: Pro-Life Bill Passes Upper House.
History was z
For For For decades, pro-life Australians have fought courageously for the unborn.
They have organised rallies, written submissions, contacted MPs, supported
good candidates, prayed, donated, and stood firm in the face of setback after
setback.
Meanwhile, abortion laws became increasingly radical. In recent years
especially, abortion-to-birth legislation has swept across much of Australia.
We’ve been told many times the debate is now over, the laws were settled,
and no parliament will ever revisit the issue.
Then came last night.
In an incredible result, the pro-life cause achieved its greatest
parliamentary breakthrough in Australian history.
Family First MLC Sarah Game‘s bill, which sought to restore
protections for unborn children from 25 weeks’ gestation, passed
the South Australian Legislative Council (Upper House).
Reversing the Pro-Abortion Trend
Pause for a moment and consider what that means.
Only five years ago, South Australia passed one of the most radical
abortion laws in the country.
Those laws were presented as settled. Done and dusted.
Yet last night, a slim majority of parliamentarians said otherwise.
In a narrow 10 votes to 9 result, the bill passed.
