Editor's note. The following are remarks delivered by NRLC President Wanda Franz, Ph.D., to the 11th Annual Proudly Pro-Life Awards Dinner.

Esteemed Donors and Friends of the National Right to Life Educational Trust Fund:

Let me welcome you on behalf of the Board of the National Right to Life Educational Trust Fund. We are pleased and thankful that so many of you have taken the time and trouble to join us at the 11th Annual Proudly Pro-Life Awards Dinner. After 10 years of celebrating the event in New York City, we thought we would make it easier on our friends in Congress and come to Washington, D.C.

The year since our last awards dinner has been rather eventful for the right-to-life movement: The following three important bills were passed by Congress and signed by President George W. Bush.

The first bill signed into law by President Bush was the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act. Its purpose is not only to protect a child surviving an abortion attempt but any child after birth who is in danger of becoming the victim of what might be called a "retroactive abortion."

The second bill had been passed several times by Congress before, but had fallen victim to former President Clinton's veto - - not once, but twice! President Bush has corrected this monstrous mistake of his predecessor. And now the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act is law.

The Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act has been challenged in three different federal courts: in Lincoln, Nebraska, in New York, and in San Francisco. Some of the testimony in these cases has been quite revealing. I'll discuss it later.
