WASHINGTON, Jan. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — “We are excited about the strong efforts in Denver to stop the construction of the Planned Parenthood abortion facility,” said Judie Brown, president of American Life League.

“Planned Parenthood operates the largest abortion chain in the nation with 287 surgical and medical abortion facilities across the country,” continued Brown. “It is attempting to open a huge abortion operation in the Denver suburb of Stapleton and local pro-lifers are working hard to stop it.”

“In an effort to convince the building contractor to withdraw from the project, the local pro-lifers have established the Collaborators Project (http://www.collaboratorsproject.com),” said Brown. “This project has established a January 31, 2008 deadline for the Weitz Company to stop building the Planned Parenthood abortion center. We pray that Weitz will make the right decision and remove itself.”

For Immediate Release (January 25, 2008):

Operation Rescue/OSA Watching Weitz Billion-dollar Firm May Get Hit with Permanent Collaborator Status

Operation Rescue/OSA joins other pro-life organizations watching to see if the Weitz construction firm will be designated with Permanent Collaborator Status. The Collaborators Project has given The Weitz Company, a billion-dollar construction firm, a deadline of January 31, 2008, to stop building a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Denver. “If Weitz does not cease from constructing this abortion facility by January 31st,” said the Collaborators Project founder Will Duffy, “we will designate their firm with Permanent Collaborator Status.”

” Operation Rescue/OSA, the world’s most well-known anti-abortion protest organization will honor Permanent Collaborator Status,” said the Rev. Flip Benham, the group’s national director. “We are planning contingency protests against Weitz to begin after February 1, and we will then encourage our members, wherever they live nationwide, to find the nearest Weitz location, and protest at their client’s homes, sales offices and construction sites.”

Operation Rescue led the non-violent civil disobedience movement that saw 50,000 arrests across America in the Christian effort that saved the lives of thousands of unborn children. Federal laws designed to keep abortion clinic doors open do not apply to collaborators. ” As a billion-dollar firm that has actually built an abortion clinic,” said Benham, “Weitz has set itself up as the centerpiece, and its clients as the spokes, of a national collaborators project that will continue for as many years as Planned Parenthood is killing children in the building prepared by Weitz.”

According to the Collaborator’s Project website, permanent collaborator status (PCS) means that pro-lifers will expand the typical targets of protests, from abortion mills and abortionist homes, to include residential picketing of executives, business sites, and clients of any organization designated with PCS. “If the Collaborators Project designates the Des Moines Iowa-based firm with PCS,” said Benham,

“Operation Rescue will stand proudly with the state-wide organization, Colorado Right To Life, in our shared commitment to protest Weitz business and residential locations in recognition of permanent collaborator status.

Wow! Isn’t this exciting {!firstname}? I’m so excited and encouraged that national organizations are backing the Collaborators Project, and more importantly, willing to honor Permanent Collaborator Status for The Weitz Company. Our local efforts have been tremendous, but a national effort will be so very encouraging for the fight for life!

Praise God that this country is uniting and taking a stand for life. We can win and we will win through the power of Jesus Christ. There is still time for Weitz to do what God wants them to do and leave the project. If you love your neighbor, Bill Hornaday, President of The Weitz Company Rocky Mountain, please call him and let him know there’s still time to do the right thing.
