August 2026
Hello Pro-Life Heroes
First, remember to go vote and encourage others to VOTE PRO-LIFE on or before Primary Election Day on Tuesday, August 4. Abortion is not on the Michigan ballot, but the choices voters make in 2026 will certainly determine if Michigan law continues to defend the lives of the disabled, elderly, and ill or gives in to the deadly siren call of legalizing Assisted Suicide. View LIFESPAN’s July-August newsletter including our Primary Candidate Questionnaire at https://milifespan.org. Ask your statewide and state legislative candidates Questions #7-8:
7. Do you SUPPORT Michigan legislation that prohibits assisted suicide so called “medical aid in dying”?
8. Do you SUPPORT honoring the wishes of patients who want life-saving treatment such as food and water regardless of their degree of disability, age, and “quality of life”?
