Press Statement:

Rev. Samuel Rodriguez

President, National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference

Hispanic National Association of Evangelicals

"The National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, Hispanic National Association of Evangelicals, vehemently and unequivocally opposes any and all Health Care Legislation that funds abortion directly or indirectly, explicitly or implicitly without exception. Abortion is not health care. We repudiate the Spirit of Herod that just as in the time of Jesus, via the vehicle of government action, attempts to destroy the very essence of our faith and the foundational pillar of our Republic; Life. Let us not forget, Jesus came to give us Life and life everlasting. We encourage all Hispanic Americans, and all people of faith and conviction to rise and contact their corresponding members of Congress, particularly the members of the Senate encouraging them to defend life, preserve liberty and secure the pursuit of happiness."
