V. P. Pence hello, florida thank you so much for that wonderful welcome. My friend marilyn musgraves, the deputy secretary, the state representative and future speaker of the Florida State house. [applause] and the pastor here at starkey baptist church. Its great to be back in church and great to be among so many champions for life. [applause] v. P. Pence and its a joy to be here with the susan b. Anthony list, founded in 1993. Now a network of more than 800,000 americans, sba is the most effective prolife Grassroots Organization in america. [cheers and applause] v. P. Pence but to all the great friends who have come out today, who have labored in the cause of life all across the sunshine state, i just first and foremost want to say thank you. Thank you for what you have done for life. Thank you for what you have done for the great movement, the sanctity of life in this country and the unborn. It is wonderful to be among friends. Thank you for coming out. [applause] v. P. Pence and speaking of friends of mine, allow me to begin by bringing greetings from another friend of mine. A man who loves the state of florida and a man who is the most prolife president in American History. President donald trump. I bring greetings from the 45th president of the United States, president donald trump. [cheers and applause] v. P. Pence really, its good to be with all of you today as we approach a time for choosing the American People. But as we gather today, i dont have to tell people here in florida that were also living in a time of testing. Here in florida and all across america we have faced challenges in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic like many of us have never seen in our lifetime. And i must tell you, im proud to serve alongside a president who has put the health of America First from day one and we are grateful for the leadership of Governor Ron Desantis all across the state of florida. As i heard yesterday, as the White House Coronavirus task force meeting, because of the governors leadership and the cooperation of the people of florida, we are seeing encouraging trends all across florida and all across the sun belt. I want to commend each and every one of you. The role you are playing in your family members and people you dont know first. I will make you a promise. We will continue to bring the full resources of the federal government to bear, to make sure the people of this community and this state have the testing, the medical supplies, and will continue to develop netizens and vaccines until we put the coronavirus in the past and open up florida and america bigger and better than ever before. V. P. Pence President Trump wanted me to be with you today, not just to thank you for your support, for your compassion for the women and children of america, but because of the difference that each one of you have made. Because of the work that you have done, we now have a prolife champion in the white house. We have prolife leaders in state houses across the country. A prolife majority in the United States senate. We have principled jurors in our courts across the land because of what you have done. Life is winning in america. [applause] v. P. Pence the declaration of independence reads that we held certain truths to be selfevident. That all men are created equal and are in doubt by our creator with certain inalienable rights. And among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Those words changed history. They also put life at the center of the american experiment. Under this president , i promise you we are going to continue to work every day to put the right to life back at the center of american law. [applause] 47 years ago, Supreme Court of the United States turned its back on that foundational. Today, these basic truths are still under siege, still under threat. The progress that we have made is in every sense at risk as we gather here today. The truth is that joe biden, the Democratic Party, and the radical left would undo all the progress we have made in the cause of life. What a contrast it has been by the progress of life under this administration. From the first day he took office, President Trump has been standing without apology for the sanctity of human life. [applause] v. P. Pence it would be just after we were in office a few days that the president reinstituted the mexico city policy, making sure no taxpayer dollars would ever to provide abortion around the world, then he expanded it a year later. [applause] President Trump became the first president in American History to address the march for life in person on the National Mall. [applause] v. P. Pence in our first year in office, the president took executive action to end the assault on the conscience rights of a group of nuns, known as the Little Sisters of the poor, and we appointed justices to the Supreme Court who were a part of a 72 majority that ended the assault on the Little Sisters of the poorest prolife conventions once and for all. [applause] v. P. Pence in fact, President Trump has appointed more conservatives to the court of appeals than any president in American History. All told, 200 conservative judges appointed to our courts at every level. I am here to tell you they are principled conservatives who will uphold the godgiven liberties enshrined in our constitution. [applause] v. P. Pence but i must tell you one of the greatest villages i have had as youre Vice President was in privileges i have had as your Vice President was to cast the tiebreaking vote on a bill that allowed states across the country to defund planned parenthood. President donald trump signed it into law. [applause] v. P. Pence by contrast, joe biden and the Democratic Party would take america in the opposite direction. After years of his party endorsing or tolerating what had come to be known as the Hyde Amendment, which prevented taxpayer dollars from being used to support abortion, now joe biden and the Democratic Party have abandoned their support for the Hyde Amendment and placed taxpayer dollars to Fund Abortion at home and abroad. Joe biden and the Democratic Party would not defund the largest Abortion Provider in america, but plan to increase funding for planned parenthood at unprecedented levels. Joe biden and the democratic support lateterm abortion. His party in the senate actually blocked a bill that would protect children that were born after failed abortions. They blocked the born alive infant protection act. Make no mistake, joe biden would appoint activist judges who would legislate from the bench and dribble on our most cherished liberties trample on our most cherished liberties. Now more than ever, prolife americans need to let our voice be heard and stand for life. [applause] v. P. Pence in cities and states and places of worship across this country, you need to speak out. You need to become involved. The sba list is an organization that spans the entire nation. For anyone looking on, this is no time to be silent. Make no mistake, the radical left wants to silence prolife americans. Recently we sold the arrest of students for life of america. A group of students were arrested for writing black preborn lives matter outside of a d. C. Planned parenthood clinic. The radical left celebrates those who defend abortion, but would prosecute those who stand for life. Weve even seen democratled legislators in this country stand up and cheer with the passage of bills that provide for late term abortion. One democratic governor actually openly defended infanticide. The choice could not be more clear. And i want to make you a promise. This president , this vicepresident , and this administration will always stand up for the freedom of speech of every american and we will always stand for life. [applause] v. P. Pence the bible admonishes us, i quote, we are to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. So have the people in this movement done every day since that day 47 years ago, because youve spoken up. Because you stood up. Because you have stood with those men and women who stood for life in the public square. Life is winning in america. From the white house to courthouses, the u. S. Senate and a conservative legislatures across in conservative legislatures across the country, the work of sba has never been more important. Weve made great progress and i think that life is winning because of the activism you all are part of in this country. I also believe life is winning because of the compassion and love that have been shown to women facing crisis pregnancies all across this country for decades. The Prolife Movement is defined by generosity, compassion and love for women and unborn children. [applause] v. P. Pence and you need look no further than ministries across the country. Crisis Pregnancy Centers and care centers that are ministering to the needs of women in crisis pregnancies. Its truly inspiring. I stopped by one on my way here today once i landed in florida. It is a clinic called the womens place. The Prolife Movement doesnt just talk the talk, you walk the walk. And i saw a wonderful clinic. I heard about all the volunteers that stepped forward along with registered nurses and health care professionals, places bustling every day with people that not just stand for life, but stand with women facing the most difficult circumstances in their lives. A womans place, i learned, is part of new Life Solutions. It is a ministry thats been here in pinellas and hillsboro counties for 35 years. Their compassionate work has saved 10,000 babys lives. [applause] v. P. Pence and i like giving credit where credit is due. Would you all mind joining me in thanking the Board Chairman and the new Life Solutions team that are here . Would you stand, kathy, and the new Life Solutions team . Lets show them how much we appreciate the way they put feet on their faith every day. [applause] v. P. Pence what a great group. Thanks to your commitment, for 35 years in this community and in cities and towns all across erica, im proud america, im proud to report to you there are far more Pregnancy Care Centers in america than abortion clinics. That is progress. And life is winning in america because of all of you. In fact, i saw that work firsthand today. We had a few minutes to meet a woman whose life was changed when she visited, when she visited a womans place. She told me she was 40 years old, pregnant and a single mom. She already had a little boy at home and didnt think she was able to become a mother again. She picked up the phone, she scheduled an appointment at planned parenthood. Before she went, she said she heard about a clinic that offered free sonograms. So she went, and for the first time in that little room where i was just standing, she caught a glimpse of her little boy. And kia chose life. [applause] v. P. Pence she said, and i quote, from the moment that i saw him, i knew i made the right choice. She said, if i hadnt found a womans place and the wonderful women there, i probably would have made a different choice. And i met little ollie today. He was a healthy and exuberant little boy who will turn one year old next week. [applause] v. P. Pence thats the difference this movement has made. One life at a time. One family at a time. And thats the difference the sba list makes. The difference everyone working in this movement has made in the lives of women and children all across this country. And i just really wanted to come by to say thank you and to urge you on. Life is winning in america. I truly do believe, because of that compassion, that care and that love. There may have been those in 1973 that thought that this movement would some day fade out. But the American People cherish all our godgiven liberties. The American People cherish the right to life and we will stand in this movement until we restore the right to life, to the center of american law. I believe it. [applause] v. P. Pence so from the white house to the courthouse, care centers, life is winning in america, but i its winning in one other way that is worth remembering. I think life is winning hearts and minds in the rising generation. Young people today are rightly seen by the tens of thousands on our National Mall as a new prolife generation, and so they are. [applause] v. P. Pence the rising generation is more prolife than before. Young americans are embracing the sanctity of life in record numbers. More and more every day. I think that is because they have heard the message of people like all of you and groups like sba. They have heard from leaders in pulpits and in public offices around the country. I think theyve also been moved. Theyve been moved by the compassion that theyve seen in places like a womans place. But i also believe that life is winning in the rising generation because of the quiet counsels that are taking place between mothers and daughters. Between grandmothers and granddaughters. I think the truth about abortion is being told. And this new generation is choosing life. As one prolife advocate recently wrote in her column in the washington times, and i quote, if our generation is to be concerned with the disenfranchised, with the marginalized, with the oppressed and the outsider, the unborn child fits all of these descriptions. [applause] v. P. Pence that is a voice in the rising generation and also the voice of my daughter charlotte. Charlotte pence bond, i couldnt be more proud of your stand for life in this rising generation. [applause] so life is winning in america. And as we continue to work as a nation to emerge from the heartbreaking days from which we have passed, days that have seen more than 150,000 families suffer loss, as we continue to work every day, bring our nation through this time of testing, we are coming to a time for choosing. And its never been more important to keep fighting for life. To keep caring, to keep reaching out with compassion and to keep standing with all the men and women who stand for life in the public square. As President Trump said not long ago, quote, every person is worth protecting, every human soul is divine and every human life born and unborn is made in the holy image of almighty god. [applause] v. P. Pence and i promise you this president and i will stand for life. We will stand with women in crisis pregnancies and we will continue to deliver on the promises that we made. Not just to the people of a movement or a cause, but to the highest ideals of our nation, including the unalienable right to life. And in the days ahead, as you labor in this movement, remember, i believe with all of my heart that the men and women of the Prolife Movement do not fight alone. He who said before, i formed you in the womb, i knew you, fights with you. [applause] v. P. Pence and when we make the cause of the author of life our cause, we make his work on this earth our own, and that means life wins. [applause] v. P. Pence so life is winning in america. Men and women of sba and of this movement, but our work is not done yet. Alexis de tocqueville is attributed to have said, america is great because america is good. If america ceases to be good, america ceases to be great. But i truly believe with your continued support, with your dedication, the cause of life will build on the extraordinary progress weve made these last three and a half years. Well continue to see prolife men and women of principle elected and reelected from the white house to the state house. And the day will come when we restore the right of life to the center of american law and we will make America Great again. Thank you very much. [applause] god bless you for all you do.
