Love Life Amendment is Successful!

Baton Rouge, La. — The Louisiana Senate today has passed the “Love Life Amendment” by a 31-4 vote. Louisiana Family Forum applauds the lawmakers who stood for life and voted to send this constitutional amendment to the residents of Louisiana this fall.

HB 425 by Rep. Katrina Jackson is a simple affirmation of a Louisiana pro-life ethic, stating “To protect human life, nothing in the Louisiana Constitution shall be construed to secure or protect a right to abortion or require the funding of abortion.”

Gene Mills, President of Louisiana Family Forum, said that “we look forward to the day Roe v Wade is overturned. This amendment, once approved by the voters of Louisiana, will make clear that the people Louisiana will protect life at all stages and tolerate no attempt to create a right to abortion in our state constitution.”

Congratulations Louisiana, your lawmakers have affirmed an essential Louisiana life-ethic and yes, “We Love Life!”
