PNCI assists legislators by:
Serving as a resource on issues,
legislation, and strategy
PNCI facilitates the sharing of policies, legislation, and best
practices among lawmakers. Specifically, PNCI provides
parliamentarians with draft legislation and talking points to
counter pro-abortion arguments, as well as accurate and timely
data and research on key issues including abortion methods, sex
selective abortion, harmful consequences to women, fetal pain,
embryonic stem cell research, cloning, pregnancy resource
centers, violence against pregnant women, and maternal
mortality.
Uniting Lawmakers in a network to
offer support and encouragement
PNCI offers a forum through which parliamentarians can show
support, offer encouragement, and share experiences with their
international colleagues.
Promoting Life Affirming Solutions for
Maternal Mortality
PNCI works to protect the lives of unborn children and provide
life-affirming solutions to maternal mortality. Real solutions
that will reduce global maternal mortality rates depend on
access to health care, especially essential obstetrical care,
and pregnancy resource centers to help meet the real needs of
women. Measures to reduce maternal mortality include: access to
safe and sanitary birthing centers, clean birthing kits,
childbirth assisted by skilled birth attendants, access to
emergency obstetric treatment, antibiotics, and clean blood for
transfusions. Legalizing abortion can never be considered
a so-called solution to reduce maternal deaths. Abortion causes
death by blood loss and infection, especially in developing
countries.
Helping to build pro-life leadership
groups
PNCI believes that legislators can be most effective in
advancing the pro-life cause when they work across political
parties in a pro-life caucus or working group assisted by
pro-life organizations, like-minded NGOs, and church leaders.
PNCI helps to form pro-life caucuses in legislatures to
establish sustainable pro-life leadership.
