Fighting the Reproductive Freedom For All Petition

By: Ed Strach - Thu, Jun 16, 2022 9:55 AM


Updated RFFA Petition Schedule – Including the Upper Peninsula, Festivals, Rallies, and local Farmer Markets

This is to keep you informed of the latest abortion petition drive schedule. Please take time to review this updated schedule and take an active part in the “Decline to Sign” initiative.

In light of this latest push for support of RFFA, I am calling on all Brother Knights and their families to stand up and participate in the Decline to Sign Initiative. The current call to action is this: If you see someone requesting signatures for the RFFA petition to listen in on the discussion and ensure the message is clear – this is to legalize abortion and more. In addition, have a hand made sign ready that simply states “Decline to Sign, Stand for Life” or personalize your message.
