Life Principles
Life Principles
These Life Principles express the ideals motivating pro-life Americans and indicate the purpose of
The January 22 March for Life
We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all human beings are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among which is the right to life; and Therefore
The right to life of each human being shall be preserved and protected by every human being in the society and by the society as a whole, and
The life of each human being shall be persevered and protected from that human being’s biological beginning when the father’s sperm fertilizes the mother’s ovum, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected from the biological beginning throughout the natural continuum of that human being’s life by all available ordinary means and reasonable efforts, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected at each stage of the life continuum to the same extent as at each and every other stage regardless of state of health or condition of dependency, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected to the same extent as the life of each and every other human being regardless of state of health or condition of dependency, and
When there is any doubt that there exists a human being’s life to preserve and protect, such doubt shall be resolved in favor of the existence of a human being, and
When two or more human beings are in a situation in which their lives are naturally endangered, all available ordinary means and reasonable efforts shall be used to preserve and protect the life of each and every human being so endangered;
Wherefore, Pursuant To These Principles, we recommend and urge the adoption of a Mandatory Human Life Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.
Contact Your Legislator
The March for Life Education and Defense Fund calls on its members to reach out to their elected officials concerning life issues. Below are guidelines to follow when writing letters, sending e-mails or making phone calls to your legislators.
Writing a Letter
- Clearly identify what your letter is concerning, and address only one subject or piece of legislation per letter.
- Clearly state what you want the Member of Congress to do (sponsor, oppose, vote for, investigate, etc.)
- Be brief, but give good reasons for your letter or request. Keep your letter to no more than one page.
- Send a thank you letter if appropriate.
Follow these guidelines when addressing your letter:
To a Senator:The Honorable (full name) Dear Senator LAST NAME: |
To a Representative:The Honorable (full name) Dear Representative LAST NAME: |
Sending an E-mail
- The same guidelines apply to e-mails as letters.
- E-mails will reach the recipient more quickly. When writing on time sensitive matters, e-mail may be the best option. Webmail forms can be found on Members of Congress’s individual websites.
Social Media

- Ask to speak to the aide who handles the issue about which you are calling.
- Identify yourself, and leave a brief message clearly stating what you would like the legislator to do.
- Be brief, but give some reasons to back up your position on the issue.
