How do we overturn the abortion flood opened by Roe v. Wade? Take the Supreme Court out of the equation by Congress defining life begins at conception just as the Bible declares. Congress can do this without an Amendment to the Constitution by enacting a Bill.
1 “Listen, O coastlands, to Me,
And take heed, you peoples from afar!
The Lord has called Me from the womb;
From the matrix of My mother He has made mention of My name.
2 And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword;
In the shadow of His hand He has hidden Me,
And made Me a polished shaft;
In His quiver He has hidden Me.” (Isa. 49: 1-2 NKJV)

Before you were born I sanctified you;

Senator Rand Paul is circulating a petition to show Congress that voters are more Pro-Life than kill the unborn baby. Now we all know the purpose of the petition is a fund raiser; nonetheless imagine if there was viral Internet support to work around the Supreme Court constitutionally. You can read Rand Paul’s stand on abortion/Pro-Life from his Senate-Govt. website HERE.

Left Wing liar-crook Senator Reid is the current Senate Majority leader by virtue of the Dems being the majority in the Senate. As you know the Dems elicit their pro-abortion stance by not recognizing a fetus is a human life and thus a woman has a right to choose to get rid of that nuisance organ produced by sex with a male. Senator Reid has made no bones about it – he will block any Life Begins at Conception legislation in the Senate.
The NPLA information below is a little dated yet still is a good description on how a Life Begins at Conception Act would work.

Legislatively Overturning Roe v. Wade with a Life at Conception Act
A Frontal Assault on Roe v. Wade's Protection of Abortion-on-Demand
For more than thirty years, nine unelected men and women on the Supreme Court have played God with innocent human life.
The result has been a brutal holocaust that has claimed the lives of more than 55 million innocent and helpless unborn children in America.
In 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade ruling forced abortion-on-demand down our nation's throat.
As a result, many pro-lifers resigned themselves to protecting a life here and there -- passing laws which slightly regulate abortion in the most outrageous cases. Others tiptoed around the Supreme Court, hoping they wouldn't be offended.
Life at Conception Act Follows the High Court's Instructions by Defining When Life Begins
Now the time to grovel before the Supreme Court is over.
Working from what the Supreme Court ruled in Roe, pro-life lawmakers can pass a Life at Conception Act and end abortion by using the Constitution instead of amending it.
A simple majority vote in both houses of Congress is all that is needed to pass a Life at Conception Act as opposed to the two-thirds required to add a Constitutional amendment.
When the Supreme Court handed down its now-infamous Roe v. Wade decision, it did so based on a new, previously undefined "right of privacy" which it "discovered" in so-called "emanations" of "penumbrae" of the Constitution.
Of course, as constitutional law it was a disaster. But never once did the Supreme Court declare abortion itself to be a Constitutional right.
Instead the Supreme Court said:
"We need not resolve the difficult question of when life begins . . . the judiciary at this point in the development of man's knowledge, is not in a position to speculate as to the answer."
Life at Conception Act Would Dismantle Roe Using the Supreme Court's Own Language
Then the High Court made a key admission:
"If this suggestion of personhood is established, the appellant's case [i.e. "Roe" who sought the abortion], of course, collapses, for the fetus' right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14th] Amendment."
That's exactly what a Life at Conception Act would do.
A Life at Conception Act changes the focus of the abortion debate. It takes the Supreme Court out of the equation and places responsibility squarely on the shoulders of the elected representatives who, unlike life term judges, must respond to grass-roots pressure.
National Pro-Life Alliance members have led the fight to end abortion-on-demand by passing a Life at Conception Act. They have generated over 1.5 million petitions to Congress to date urging lawmakers to cosponsor and fight for passage of a Life at Conception Act.
Fight to Overturn Roe v. Wade Heats Up in Congress
Those continued efforts have led to ever-increasing support for a Life at Conception Act in Congress. In the 112th Session of Congress, Pro-life Members of Congress introduced Life at Conception Acts – in both the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate.
Thanks to the grassroots lobbying of National Pro-Life Alliance members, the Life at Conception Act was introduced with an all time record number of cosponsors, in both houses. And NPLA members will continue to hold the politicians accountable, pushing for an up or down vote on a Life at Conception Act.
In the U.S. Senate, pro-life floor leader Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) introduced the Life at Conception Act, S. 91.
Behind the two Life at Conception Act bills in the House are Congressman Duncan D. Hunter (R-CA) and Congressman Paul Broun (R-GA). By introducing H.R. 374, Congressman Duncan D. Hunter, the son of former Life at Conception Act sponsor Duncan L. Hunter, is following in his father’s footsteps.
Hunter serves as the Representative of the 52nd Congressional District of California, the post held by his father prior to his retirement in 2007.
Congressman Paul Broun, the author of H.R. 212, is a former medical doctor who entered the political arena in 2007.
Congressman Broun has since sought to use his medical expertise to legally establish the scientific fact that conception marks the creation of a genetically unique human being, who should be guaranteed Constitutional protection under the 14th Amendment.
An up or down vote on the Life at Conception Act will put politicians on record either for or against ending abortion-on-demand.
Pro-lifers are urged to call (202) 224-3121 and insist that their Congressmen cosponsor H.R. 374 and H.R. 212, and that their Senators cosponsor S. 91 today...

Legislatively Overturning Roe v. Wade with a Life at Conception Act
NPLA Mission:
Because every human life is precious in the eyes of God, and science and common sense dictate that life begins at conception, it is clear that abortion is the wanton taking of human life and no truly great nation can allow this practice to take place.
Ever since the dreadful Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, more than 55 million precious unborn babies have lost their lives.
The National Pro-Life Alliance's members, staff and volunteers are dedicated to halting this slaughter once and for all. And despite the many remaining obstacles, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
National Pro-Life Alliance's Focus Is Passing Substantive Pro-Life Legislation
The National Pro-Life Alliance occupies a unique and important role in the pro-life movement. The focus of … READ THE REST
