From: Rebecca Riggs of Concerned Women for America, 202-488-7000 Web site: http://www.media.cwfa.org News Advisory: The following was released today by Concerned Women for America: Concerned Women for America is proud to join Coral Ridge Ministries and a historic coalition of 32 pro-life, pro-family groups to launch the second phase of the "Shake the Nation Back to Life" campaign. TV ads that reveal the lies behind Roe v. Wade will begin airing next week on national TV. The ads feature Norma McCorvey, "Jane Roe" of Roe v. Wade; Sandra Cano, who was "Mary Doe" of Doe v. Bolton, Roe's companion case that allows late-term abortions; and Dr. Bernard Nathanson, a co-founder of NARAL boldly declaring, "Abortion is a lie." These former heroes for the abortion industry are calling the nation to follow their strong support for life. "The American public is still asleep to the lies and deceit Roe v. Wade is based on. Abortion supporters have relied on this to continue the ongoing murder of the most innocent. We will 'Shake the Nation' but the people must wake up to the truth that 'Abortion is a Lie'," said Sandy Rios, president of Concerned Women for America. "Shake the Nation Back to Life" is a campaign to educate and activate citizens, and persuade senators and the president to treat all innocent people equally, including unborn babies.
