Today, March 21, marks World Down Syndrome Day, a day of global awareness dedicated to those with Down syndrome.

Two parent perspectives on Down syndrome have been bouncing through my social media feeds this week: One, a father's letter to his daughter on her wedding day; the other, a mother who says she would have aborted her daughter with Down syndrome.

The stories we tell—our real experiences of good people doing good things—can change hearts and minds fundamentally. It seems like the more good stories we consume, the more good stories we want to generate. 

The mission of Ohio Right to Life is to protect every innocent human life from conception until natural death--regardless of race, sex, or any chromosomal distinction. (Isn't it interesting how the other side tries to claim inclusion, diversity, and equality as their values?)

As you know, our Down Syndrome Non-Discrimination is quickly advancing through committee hearings in the Ohio House of Representatives. Today, the House Committee on Community and Family Advancement will hear opposition testimony on this bill that protects pre-born babies from the discriminatory violence of abortion.
