The Texas Right to Life PAC is running radio ads in Harris County targeting District Attorney Devon Anderson and State Rep. Sarah Davis.
Hello, I’m Jim Graham, President of Texas Right to Life. Please listen carefully about two fake Republicans on the ballot right now. If you vote a straight Republican ticket, I ask you to unmark two politicians who stabbed pro-lifers in the back. Unmark Devon Anderson and unmark Sarah Davis. While in office, these two have sided with Planned Parenthood and turned their backs on unborn babies. They don’t deserve to be reelected. No political party owns your vote. Join the resistance. Fight the establishment. Vote pro-life.
Former HCRP Chair Woodfill on Sarah Davis
Enough is Enough! Demand that State Rep. Sarah Davis
Disavow Her Planned Parenthood EndorsementJeremiah 1:5 states, “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.” During his day, Jeremiah the prophet had spoken out against a people who were building altars to Baal in order to sacrifice their children. (Jeremiah 19:4-5) This biblical pro-life truth is adopted in our 2016 Republican Party of Texas Platform where it states,”Right to Life – All innocent human life must be respected and safeguarded from fertilization to natural death; therefore, the unborn…have a fundamental individual right to life, which cannot be infringed.” (2016 RPT Platform p. 11) The RPT Platform further states, “Abolish Abortion – We call upon the Texas Legislature to enact legislation stopping the murder of unborn children…” (2016 RPT Platform p. 11) In fact, the abortion industry’s leading provider/advocate, Planned Parenthood, has fought Republicans on the life issue from time immemorial. Our RPT Platform also addresses this organization specifically, stating, “Planned Parenthood – We support completely eliminating public funding for Planned Parenthood.”
Republicans, save one (Rep. Sarah Davis), have supported the sonogram bill, defunding of Planned Parenthood, parental consent and other limits on abortion. While most of us have spent our time and resources fighting for the life of the unborn and opposing Planned Parenthood, State Rep. Sarah Davis, Republican District 134, Harris County, has chosen to embrace the abortion industry and its figurative head, Planned Parenthood. During this election cycle, Ms. Davis has taken her pro-abortion agenda one step further, bragging about her Planned Parenthood endorsement. The most recent mail piece sent to over 30,000 voters in House District 134, states the following:
“In 2013, Sarah Davis stood alone again: she was the only Republican in the entire Legislature to vote against abortion restrictions…” The flyer quotes Ms. Davis’ pro-abortion statements from the floor of the Texas’ House of Representatives, stating, “We are here, and the nation is watching what we are doing today on the floor…now is not the time to play political football with women.” In the mail piece Ms. Davis describes these statements as, “Our Voice, Our Values.” Clearly, she has disdain and disrespect for the grassroots activist who created our Pro-life Party Platform. Her pro-abortion values are not our values!
Not surprisingly, Ms. Davis is a key part of Speaker Straus’ leadership team, serving on the powerful Calendars Committee. I want to encourage you to call (512) 463-0389, email, tweet, and post on Ms. Davis’ Facebook page to disavow her Planned Parenthood endorsement. Let her know that we are the party of life and we will not stand by idly and allow Planned Parenthood to push its radical agenda on Harris County or the state of Texas. Thank you for your taking action. It is time for our grassroots army to engage. Enough is Enough!
Thank you,
Jared Woodfill
President, Conservative Republicans of Texas
I guess the overall message is to think twice before casting that straight Republican ballot.
Jim in Conroe says
So you would prefer to elect a Democrat to these positions? I’m sure they can be persuaded to abandon or modify their pro abortion positions.
Work for better Republican candidates during the primary process. Once selected, get behind the Republican ticket and work to change their points of view.

Jim in Conroe,
Devon chose to indict David Daleiden after the filing deadline to run against her. She nobilled Doug Karpen after the filing deadline two years ago. Devon forfeited her right not to be targeted.

Jim:
Please explain how Devon Anderson exhibits a pro-life position. As best I can tell Ms. Ogg is at least as pro life as Ms. Anderson.
The Republican party (both nationally and locally) has pretty much forfeited the right to demand my undiscerning vote. If you are so frickin’ anxious for me to vote a straight ticket, then perhaps YOU need to work harder to actually get competent conservatives on the ticket.
