I received this email from Eric Scheidler today. Check it out:The weekend after next brings two exciting pro-life events toIllinois, but before I fill you in, I have an urgent action itemfor you on the embattled Illinois Parental Notice Act.It took 14 years and a huge court battle to finally get this 1995act put into force, but then the Illinois Department of Financialand Professional Regulation decided to enact a 90-day "graceperiod" to give abortionists time to prepare for the new policy.That grace period was supposed to end TODAY. But now the board hasapproved ANOTHER extension.Tomorrow, they'll decide how much MORE time to give abortionists toperform abortions on minor girls without informing their parents.Please CALL GOVERNOR QUINN and urge him to instruct the Departmentof Financial and Professional Regulation to END THE DELAY and allowthe Parental Notification Act to go into effect:Governor Quinn, Springfield Office: 217-782-0244Governor Quinn, Chicago Office: 312-814-2121Call BOTH the Springfield and Chicago offices, and be sure to passthis message on to all your pro-life friends.*** BIG PRO-LIFE WEEKEND NOVEMBER 13-14 ***And now to tell you about the exciting upcoming weekend packed withpro-life events in Aurora and Chicago.1.
