The war against women and the unborn should be the main election issue!

Updated: Feb 17, 2023


Media Release 18 January 2023


Right to Life believes that those who are prepared to kill the unborn should not be trusted to govern the born.


Justice demands that the war against women and the unborn be recognised as the most important issue facing our nation at the next general election.


The government, the National Party, ACT, the Greens and the Maori Party with the support of the media have betrayed the women of New Zealand and their precious unborn children by colluding to ensure that the state funded killing of children before birth is not an election issue.


Why are women deceived by this government into believing that the government really cares about them when it funds the violent killing of their children before birth?


One in five New Zealanders is murdered in the womb, for any reason up to 20 weeks and up to birth if a doctor considers it “appropriate.” Right to Life asks our Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern and Members of Parliament, how many New Zealanders need to be murdered in the womb before you are prepared to accept that this is a justice issue worthy of your attention?


The government and the Parliamentary political parties have decided that the critical issues that should be the focus for this election are cost of living, law and order, and housing.


These issues are important, however the most important issue is the sanctity of life and the right to life of every New Zealander from conception to natural death.


Right to Life makes no apology for speaking up in defence of women and their precious unborn children. We, and many in the community are totally opposed to the violence of abortion inflicted on them and their precious unborn children.


Since the government of Jacinda Ardern took office in 2017 more than 60,000 defenceless and innocent unborn children were killed before they were born and their mothers wounded, authorised and funded by the government, under the pretext that this was “a reproductive health service.”


Right to Life encourages the community to defend women and oppose the violence of abortion by ensuring that they vote only for electorate candidates for Parliament and political parties for your list vote who are prepared to support the repeal of the anti-life Abortion Legislation Act 2020 and the End of Life Choice Act 2019.
