I Survived!

I survived Roe v. Wade because my parents said “yes” to the life that God created.

Thirty-eight years ago today, the United States Supreme Court made its landmark ruling on Roe v. Wade, legalizing abortion in our country. Since January 22, 1973, over 50 million babies have been murdered because their mothers were given the right to choose.

On this day, as the church commemorates the Roe v. Wade decision, dioceses throughout the United States are celebrating Masses of Peace and Justice. Let us continue to pray for the most vulnerable among us. Let us also continue the fight to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Florida's 8th Congressional District | Source: National Atlas

Over the last several weeks, campaign ads for the upcoming November elections have begun to increase, especially in high priority, battleground districts. Florida’s 8th Congressional District is one such district. Jockeying for the seat in the House of Representatives are one outspoken, ultra-liberal Democrat, Alan Grayson, and a handful of conservative Republican hopefuls. Not to mention those running for the seat who have other or no party affiliations.

In November 2008, Democratic newcomer Alan Grayson was able to oust Republican Ric Keller who represented the district since 2001. Now, Grayson is up for re-election. After his vote on the health care bill and the stimulus, many of his constituents are beginning to question whether or not he is the right person to represent their district.

Before we can get to the November general election, however, we must first go through primary voting season, which takes place for this particular district on August 24th. While there are no Democrats running against Grayson in the Democratic primary, there are seven Republicans who will have to duke it out come August.
