"About Susan B. Anthony List

SBA List exists to pass laws that protect unborn children and their mothers from abortion

SBA combines politics with policy, investing heavily in voter education to ensure that pro-life Americans know where their lawmakers stand on protecting the unborn, and in issue advocacy, advancing pro-life laws through direct lobbying and grassroots campaigns.

SBA List is a family of organizations, an arsenal designed not to hurt but to heal, not to shame but to shield. We invite you to stand tall with us in that arena, to encircle the vulnerable ones who need us, and to fight until they are safe and free."

Need I add, they'd love to shut down Planned Parenthood...
