The #ProLife narrative that ALL women who get abortions are victims who shouldn't be subject to the law is the greatest obstacle to #EqualProtection for babies.
Perhaps one of the oddest arguments I hear from the pregnancy help movement is that women “won’t come” to pregnancy help clinics if we abolish abortion. Of course the opposite is true. When abortion is no longer a legal option, what are the places that stand ready to help? PRCs.
From @JacobMillerAHA
I was a volunteer, not a delegate, the session was to start at 9am. We receive an action message late at night from @Not_a_Victim_ “Lining up the mics is a defensive strategy. When they see us at the mics, it silently tells them: ‘If you make a motion to gut our priority, we are strongly prepared at every mic to counter.’ “ early in the morning me and Jason, a delegate, rush to the convention by 7am. We will be there first. We then hear a report from the abolitionists on deck, “nobody else is here, it’s mostly empty”. But we were there. We were the first ones there. Enough to have 1-2 at every mic.
I go back to pick up the volunteers, close out and clean our AirBnB that was paid for by a generous donor. On the way back to the Convention center it was just me and my 11 year old daughter. I told her “this is what Christian activism looks like. We’re the first ones there, the last ones to leave. We work harder than everyone else. We show up in droves because we care more than everyone else. When we’re tired, we don’t grow weary because our purpose is greater and our savior and redeemer sustains us. We support each other, weep with each other, rejoice with each other, and fight harder than anyone else. We pray continually, and also pray over every chair, every piece of literature, and every conversation. We remind each other, win or ‘lose’ faithfulness to Christ was our goal, and His glory will be known because of His promise as a reward for faithfulness.”
The reality is that the convention saw our Christian faithfulness. The witness it carried brought fruit because of the One who we bare witness to. Christians. Use this example. We don’t need to deceive, or compromise. We need to be faithful, and we need to fight harder and care more. Most of all, we need to bring the word of the Living God UNASHAMEDLY.
Christ is sufficient. Scripture is sufficient. For politics too.
Soli Deo Gloria.
🚨 @BradleyPierce provides an update after our final day at the Republican Party of Texas Convention. We are thankful to God for many important victories and for all of you who supported us along the way!
As far as we know, @TXAlliance4Life is the group working the hardest to ensure babies are NEVER equally protected by law in Texas.
But if you have evidence of other groups doing the same we would be glad to see it so we can expose them as well.
Women who knowingly, willingly, deliberately murder their babies should be subject to the same penalties as everyone else. We are not ashamed of that position.
🔥 WATCH: @Not_a_Victim_ speaks against the effort from @TXAlliance4Life to GUT the Republican Party of Texas legislative priority on “Protect Life” of equal protection and criminalization language.
Equal protection is the LOVING thing to do in Texas.
My speech AGAINST @TXAlliance4Life’s motion to gut equal protection from the Protect Life Legislative Priority of the @TexasGOP.
They aren’t ashamed to say it, @TXAlliance4Life worked hard to put exceptions for women to murder their babies into Texas law, and they do not want those murder exceptions removed.
@TexasGOP are you ready to reject this self-defeating strategy and become abolitionists yet?
🚨 WATCH: @TXAlliance4Life Executive Director @AmyODonnell attempted to GUT the Republican Party of Texas legislative priority on “Protect Life,” arguing AGAINST “criminalizing abortion for women.”
Republican Party of Texas delegates soundly REJECTED this effort, keeping the STRONG equal protection and criminalization language in the legislative priority.
What a privilege it’s been to work alongside Christians this week who are laser focused on obeying God in this fight🔥
Not done yet. We’re here to the end.
Make Protecting Life through equal protection the #1 Legislative Priority until we get it done.
🔥 WATCH: Texas pastor, veteran, and abolitionist @NathanIrv1689 speaks against @TXAlliance4Life trying to weaken the Republican Party of Texas legislative priority on “Protect Life,” applying the Word of God to the partiality toward preborn babies in our laws.
On 4 hours of sleep, but this group of Christians got thousands of table tents assembled and out on ALL delegate chairs late last night. 🙌
We’ll be at the mics this morning to counter @TXAlliance4Life's effort to gut the Protect Life Legislative Priority on equal protection.
.@TXAlliance4Life and @AATXNow are two of the pro-life groups at the center of this week's debate over abortion-related language in the @TexasGOP platform at its 2026 state convention, primarily disagreeing over criminal penalties for abortive mothers. https://t.co/UP8dHiQv36
🚨 BREAKING: @TXAlliance4Life is passing out literature at the Republican Party of Texas Convention calling on delegates to WEAKEN the “Protect Life” legislative priority language.
Thankfully there are DOZENS of abolitionists countering this effort and encouraging delegates to KEEP the language.
The current language calls for EQUALLY protecting preborn babies and STRIKING the loopholes in Texas law keeping abortion LEGAL for women.
If you are a delegate, please vote AGAINST any attempt from @TXAlliance4Life or other establishment groups to GUT the “Protect Life” legislative priority.
@bnuckols And beyond this, do you have a problem with the murders of born children being prosecuted under current statutes, or is it just preborn children who should lack those protections?
Make PROTECT LIFE the #1 Legislative Priority for Texas Republicans.
This isn't complicated, though some are trying to convince you that it is.
We MUST make it illegal for everyone to murder babies in Texas. And until that's done, it should be a TOP LEGISLATIVE PRIORITY.
@bnuckols My understanding is the under-6 inquest applies to unexpected deaths only. And while capital murder statutes do cover child victims, prosecutors aren’t mandated to file capital charges — they have discretion to charge lesser charges such as a regular murder charge.
Republican Party of Texas delegates will take a crucial vote tomorrow on the top legislative priorities for our state. The abolitionists set thousands of table tents on their chairs, reminding them that abortion has not been abolished in Texas.
🔥 @BradleyPierce explains how we are ready to SHUT DOWN any attempt from @TXAlliance4Life to GUT the Republican Party of Texas legislative priority on Protecting Life.
