RIGHT TO LIFE NEW ZEALAND

Media Release 6 October 2026 Right to Life encourages our community to vote to protect the lives of God’s precious infants and the vulnerable in our community, by voting for the New Conservative Party at this year’s general election. Those who are not prepared to govern to protect the unborn, should not be trusted to govern the born. Human life begins at conception. The most dangerous place for a New Zealander today is in the mother’s womb. The first priority for those who si

Media Release 29 September 2026 Right to Life challenges the international pro-abortion movement and abortion profiteers who celebrate the killing of defenceless children. They perpetuate the fiction in their war against women by calling abortion “safe” and celebrating International Safe Abortion Day on 28 September 2026. The abortion industry denies the humanity of the unborn child, and upholds the fiction that the child does not become a human being endowed with an inalien

Media Release 25 September 2026 Right to Life believes that the secretary General of the United Nations should recognise that every human being is an unrepeatable miracle of God’s loving creation deserving of love and respect. Michelle Bachelet was the front runner and most favoured for election, as the Secretary General of the United Nations. She is a radical feminist and socialist, former president of Chile, who promised to make abortion an international human right, has be

Media Release 18 September 2026 Right to Life believes that there is an urgent need for our community to oppose those pharmacists in New Zealand, who prescribe and sell abortion pills to kill God’s precious infants before they are born. Abortion providers do not deserve our patronage. The Ministry of Health has advised Right to Life that the provisional number of Early Medical Abortions (EMAs) performed in 2025 was 11871, which represents 67% of the total of 17,964 abortions

Media Release 10 September 2026 Gloria Steinem betrayed women and the family by advocating false reproductive freedom that allowed women to kill their children before they were born, this is not genuine feminism but anti-feminism. Right to Life is praying for the happy repose of the soul of Gloria Steinem. We grieve with her family who mourn her death. It is a tragedy that she did not recognise God’s plan for the family as founded exclusively on marriage between one man an

Media Release 5 September 2026 Right to Life believes that churches should be at the forefront in defending the lives of God’s precious infants and their mothers. Right to Life commends the United States Catholic Bishop’s Conference for recently initiating a campaign of prayer and action to stop pharmacies selling lethal abortion pills to kill unborn children in Early Medical Abortions during their first ten weeks of life. Right to Life encourages churches in New Zealand to

Media Release 30 August 2026 The United Nations Human Rights Council [ UNHRC] is currently conducting its fifth periodic review of New Zealand’s compliance with the UN Convention Against Torture. Right to Life believes that poisoning, scraping unborn children from their mother’s wombs or dismembering them is violent torture, contravening human rights and the UN Convention Against Torture. Right to Life believes that The United Nations should be at the forefront in defending t

Media Release 23 August 2026 Matthew 5:10: "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Right to Life believes that the Prime Minister who commendably recognises abortion as murder should rescind his declaration that the abortion legislation is fixed law and may not be changed while he is Prime Minister, to provide protection for the lives of unborn children and their mothers. Right to Life believes that his declaration

Media Release 14 August 2026 Euthanasia is intrinsically evil, it violates the Fifth Commandment of God, “Thou shalt not kill.” In response to an Official Information Act from Right to Life, Health New Zealand advised our Society on 12 August of the provisional total number of assisted deaths in New Zealand provided by the 10 practitioners with the highest total payments received, along with the total fees payment to each of these 10 practitioners, under the Assisted Dying Se

Media Release 11 August 2026 Does New Zealand need a Prime Minister who supports the murder of God’s precious infants and the war against women? Right to Life believes that we have a serious moral duty NOT to vote for a Prime Minister nor for any candidate for election to Parliament, who is not prepared to protect the lives of all New Zealanders from conception to natural death. Abortion is intrinsically evil and violates the Fifth commandment of God “You shall not kill.” In
