https://40daysforlife.com/tempe ALL life is precious! After Roe was overturned, the decisions on abortion went back to the states. Currently abortion is legal in Arizona with restrictions. In-clinic abortions are legal up to 14 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy as well as medication abortions up to 11 weeks. The power of prayer is still necessary to change hearts and minds to make abortion unthinkable. We peacefully pray outside a local Planned Parenthood during both a Fall and Spring campaign lasting 40 days each.

Live Action
www.liveaction.org Live Action was started in 2003, by one 15-year-old girl, Lila Rose, in her family’s living room – with the goal to expose what abortion does to the preborn child. Lila started undercover investigations in 2006, while at UCLA. She was 18 at the time.
In 2008, Live Action was legally formed as a non-partisan, non-profit organization. Later that year, with a few of her friends, Lila created and produced the first nationally televised undercover investigation of the abortion industry.
Live Action exists today to shift public opinion on the killing of preborn children and defend the rights of these most vulnerable among us. Through compelling educational media, human interest storytelling, and investigative reporting, we reveal the humanity of the preborn and expose the abortion industry’s exploitation of women for profit.
