Vote protects unborn beginning at conception

'Victory serves as example to other nations'


The Dominican Republic

Lawmakers working on a new constitution for the Dominican Republic have voted overwhelmingly to protect life, specifying in the document that "the right to life is inviolable from conception until death."

The vote yesterday was 167-32 in the national legislature, which was responding to pressure from international pro-abortion groups seeking to expand their business operations into the Caribbean island nation.

"A true respect for human life is protecting it from the beginning, the Dominican Republic is ahead of America in building a society where all human life is truly respected," said Ignacio Reyes, director of Live Action San Jose.

His group was among several that sent representatives to the nation over the past month to explain the full impact of abortion.

Live Action San Jose had produced a video of an abortion and made it available to several national television outlets to reveal the horrors of the procedure to millions of Dominicans.

"We are thrilled that the protection of human life from the moment of conception is now established into the constitution, in spite of fierce international pressure to legalize abortion," said Dr. Gene Antonio, a pro-life missionary in the Dominican Republic.

"This overwhelming victory serves as an example to the other Latin countries fighting to protect life, that we can win and we must win because the lives of little people are at stake," he said.

Having tried to no avail to awaken his peers, the Black Sheep have no other choice but to unite with each other and escape the impending doom.
