AMERICANS UNITED FOR LIFE ACTION ENDORSES JANE NORTON

Conservatives lining up for Jane Norton

Denver, CO – Today, Americans United for Life, the oldest pro-life organization in the nation, endorsed Jane Norton for U.S. Senate. This is the first time AUL has endorsed a candidate.

Dr. Charmaine Yoest, President and CEO of Americans United for Life Action (AULA) - the legislative action arm of Americans United for Life – said, “Americans United for Life Action is proud to lend our first-ever endorsement to Colorado Senate candidate, Lt. Governor Jane Norton. Jane has amassed an impressive record as a commonsense, pro-life leader.”

“She has fought taxpayer-funded abortion in her state, honoring the wishes of Coloradans. She has been a leading voice in promoting adoption and has worked successfully to protect vulnerable children,” continued Dr. Yoest. “In an era where Washington elites are ignoring the will of the American people, Jane Norton will be exactly the kind of Senator we need - a powerful pro-life voice in the U.S. Senate.”

Americans United for Life Action (AULA), the legislative action arm of Americans United for Life, advocates for policies that advance the cause of Life in every state. AULA has grassroots activists and legislators working in dozens of states to pass pro-life laws, advocating for pro-life legislation at the federal level, and now working to elect pro-life candidates who will make the defense of Life a central focus of their efforts in public office.
