PARADES
Thanks to the volunteers who have made it possible to share our message of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" by constructing an amazing float for this 250th U.S.A. birthday celebration! Volunteers accompanied the float in the Lincoln Park and Trenton Memorial Day Parades.
Everyone is invited to be in parades this summer with our Right to Life entry:
· Saturday, June 6: Southgate
Heritage Days parade begins
at 11 a.m. We meet by 10:30 a.m.
at Grogan Elementary, 13300
Burns Street, just S of Northline.
The parade route is down Burns
to Eureka ending at the Market
Place. Wear your pro-life T-shirt or
buy one there for $10.
· Saturday, July 4: Wyandotte Independence Day Parade begins at 10 a.m. along Biddle Avenue from
Northline to just beyond Eureka.

Thank you all for your continued dedication! Every share helps amplify our mission.
Fight Assisted Suicide
Legalizing assisted suicide has been introduced into the Michigan House of Representatives. We need to preemptively stop it. Find out more information here: https://rtl.org/assisted-suicide-bills-danger-to-vulnerable-citizens/
Election
Aug 4 is the primary in Michigan. Due to a recent change in the law, every voter has the right to be on the permanent absentee voter list. Simply contact your city or township clerk. Your ballot will be mailed to you. You will always know when there will be an election and it gives you time to research and vote. You may either drop it off at the clerk's office before the election or take it to early or election day voting. You may also see what is on your ballot in advance at: https://www.vote.org/ballot-information/. To see candidates endorsed by Right to Life of Michigan, go to rtl.org/vote.
Non-presidential elections tend to have lower turn out of pro-life voters. That is what happened when Proposal 3 passed which put legal abortion for any reason at any time in the Michigan Constitution. This year we have the opportunity to elect not only the Governor, Secretary of State and Attorney General, but also a United States Senator and Congressman as well as a Michigan Senator and District Representative as well as some local offices. It is an opportunity to put conservative, pro-life majorities in office. Volunteers are needed to make "Get Out the Vote" calls or go to selected doors to inform like minded citizens of who the pro-life candidates are. The new system identifies people who have pro-life values and will not show your phone number. Please volunteer for one hour. Reply before June 15 so that you can participate in the online training. Your participation is a matter of Life or Death.
And remind your family and friends to vote: https://www.10xvotes.com/
Primary Election: August 4
General Election: November 3
