OPERATION RESCUE TO ANNOUNCE NEW CAMPAIGN

National Prolife leaders will hold a press conference tomorrow, Friday, November 6th, at 12:00 noon in front of the Northpark Medical Group abortion mill at 8363 Meadow Dr. in Dallas, Texas. During the press conference Rev. Chet Gallagher will call for Jim Kopp, wanted as a material witness in the slaying of New York abortionist Barnett Slepian, to surrender.

"With one voice we as Christian prolifers must condemn the assaults on abortionists as sin." said Rev Gallagher. "Since Roe v. Wade we have released a spirit of murder upon our land and it has claimed another victim. This time it was an abortionist who had himself murdered thousands of little boys and girls.

Rev. Gallagher, a former Las Vegas Police officer, was once arrested on duty for joining rescuers in front of a Las Vegas abortion clinic. He believes he and Kopp were arrested together in 1988 with hundreds of others in Atlanta, GA.

Rev. Flip Benham, Director of Operation Rescue, will be addressing Attorney General Janet Reno's latest attempt to use Barnett Slepian's murder to silence the voice of Christians outside abortion mills. "Once again the Justice Department of the United States of America is attempting to use the violence of one to silence the voice of many." Said Rev. Benham. "If Miss Reno makes the peaceful proclamation of the Gospel of Christ at abortion mills impossible she will be making violent protest inevitable."
