RESOLUTION TO DENY PARTY FUNDING
TO CANDIDATES WHO SUPPORT
PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION
WHEREAS, the Republican Party since 1976 has upheld the
sanctity of life with the inclusion of a right-to-life plank
in the party's national platform; and
WHEREAS, partial birth abortion is a hideous, Naziesque
procedure, designed to murder a living child at the moment
of birth; and
WHEREAS, in January 1998, Mr. Tim Lambert, then the Republican
National Committeeman from Texas, introduced and
courageously defended before the Republican National
Committee (RNC), a resolution that would have ended
party funding for Republican candidates who favor partial
birth abortion; and
WHEREAS, the RNC adopted the Lambert resolution
with amendents that removed the funding revocation
language; now therefore be it
RESOLVED that we, the Republican voters of the above-named
precinct, do not support the funding by the Republican Party
at any level of candidates who favor partial birth abortion;
and be it further
RESOLVED that we call upon the State Republican Executive Committee and the RNC to deny funding to candidates who support partial birth abortion; and be it further
RESOLVED that we commend former National Committeeman Tim Lambert
for his efforts in this regard; and be it further
RESOLVED that the Senatorial District and County platforms
throughout Texas and the state platform of the Republican
Party of Texas be amended to specifically address
partial birth abortion and the funding of candidates who
support this brand of infanticide.
Attest:
