They are back

Today, Personhood Colorado submitted what is likely to be enough new signatures to cure their original signature deficiency in order to place an amendment on Colorado’s 2010 ballot to rob women of their reproductive rights. These anti-choice forces needed to gather approximately 16,000 more signatures after failing to meet the required amount on February 12th and they report turning in 46,671 this afternoon. Further, in an effort to thwart the citizen initiative process and standards, they are threatening to sue the Secretary of State.


This means that is highly likely that Colorado will face another Definition of Person Amendment on the November 2010 ballot.


Thank you all for your support and dedication but we need your help now more than ever. You successfully helped us defeat these anti-choice forces in November 2008 by a 3-to-1 margin but these anti-choice forces are relentless!
