To the editor:

Kansans for Life would like to extend its sincere appreciation to Kansas Senator Mary Jo Taylor and State Representative Tori Arnberger for voting in favor of the Value Them Both Amendment to the Kansas Constitution.

Recent court rulings have cleared the way for an unlimited abortion industry in our state and Value Them Both is the most important pro-life measure of our generation.

While it came up a few votes shy in the Kansas House on Feb. 7, the Amendment will likely be debated again later in the 2020 legislative session.

Value Them Both is a commonsense measure that would restore Kansans’s ability to have a say when it comes to the regulation of the abortion industry. Without this Amendment, every state pro-life law could be struck down in court and state Medicaid/taxpayer dollars will likely become a funding source for abortion.

We encourage readers to thank these legislators, encourage them to continue fighting for Value Them Both Amendment and place it on the August 2020 ballot.

Mary Wilkinson

President, Kansans for Life
