Political Heavyweights Join Americans United for Life for its 40th Anniversary Gala
Honorary Co-Chairs Texas Governor Rick Perry, U. S. House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, and U.S. Senator Jeff Sessions lead a stellar list of Honorary Hosts for a historic event.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- National leaders and political luminaries will join together in November to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Americans United for Life -- the nation's premier pro-life legal team and the country's first national pro-life organization -- incorporated in 1971 before the infamous Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision. The high profile event is already marked by an impressive list of pro-life leaders serving as honorary hosts of the much-anticipated evening.
AUL President and CEO Dr. Charmaine Yoest noted that the anniversary gala would mark the "accumulated pro-life victories AUL has earned through years of public service and the people who made them possible."
Milestones for AUL include: successfully defending the Hyde Amendment before the U.S. Supreme Court, establishing the intellectual groundwork for Fetal Homicide legislation now passed in 38 states, reducing abortions state by state through cutting-edge model legislation found in Defending Life (a catalogue of 39 pieces of model legislation), leading in the fight against assisted suicide, and testifying for life in state legislatures around the country and in the last two Supreme Court justice confirmation hearings.
