(COLUMBUS, OH) – The Ohio Right to Life Society Political Action Committee today announced their full support and endorsement of pro-life candidate Mitt Romney for President of the United States.
 
“Americans find themselves at a tipping point leading up to the 2012 presidential election. During Obama’s first term, we have witnessed executive orders mandating taxpayer support of abortion-causing drugs, forced funding of life-destroying embryonic stem cell research and the socialization of healthcare. This president even went so far as to threaten to shut down our government unless taxpayers continued to fund Planned Parenthood,” said Mike Gonidakis on behalf of the Ohio Right to Life PAC. “Governor Romney is committed to protecting mothers and their unborn babies. It is clear that he will appoint pro-life justices to the Supreme Court and by doing so, we will ultimately overturn Roe v. Wade.”
 
The National Right to Life PAC, which includes 49 state Right to Life affiliates as well as Ohio Right to Life PAC, announced its endorsement of Romney today to demonstrate that the national pro-life community is unified in its purpose and mission to defend all innocent human life at the ballot box. The number one priority for pro-life Americans is clear – to defeat Barack Obama this November. 
 
Governor Romney is committed to protecting pro-life values. He supports the Hyde Amendment and ending federal funding for the nation’s largest abortion provider, Planned Parenthood. He is committed to upholding the sanctity of life and opposes the killing of human beings in the name of “science.” Most importantly, he believes that Roe vs. Wade was wrongly decided and should be overturned.
 
In our battleground state, Ohio Right to Life strongly encourages pro-life Ohioans to lend their full support to this year’s pro-life presidential candidate, Mitt Romney.
