Background: Senate Bill 1059 was introduced last week by Sen. Shippy to add language to the Idaho code to protect all human life equally. Currently, preborn children, created in the image of God are not protected by the law. Our preborn neighbors can be murdered by poison with the protection of the law. Why not protect the innocent person rather than the criminal. This is an unjust law that should not exist.
This letter is to Senator Jim Guthrie, chairman of the Senate State Affairs Committee who has claimed he will not grant a proper hearing for this legitimate bill.
If compelled, you should contact Senator Guthrie as well. His email address is here: JGuthrie@senate.idaho.gov

Subject: Idaho Prenatal Equal Protection Act, Senate Bill 1059
Dear Senator Guthrie,
I write you today with a solemn plea: to champion the cause of personhood of the preborn and
ensure their right to life is protected under the law. This basic duty of legislating law is to
protect the innocent and prosecute the wicked.
As a pastor and citizen of this great state, I believe every human life, from the moment of
fertilization, is sacred. Like you, I am deeply troubled by the ongoing tragedy of abortion, which
has claimed the lives of countless innocent children and caused immeasurable pain to women
and families.
I understand that the issue of abortion is emotionally charged. However, the fundamental
question at its core is simple: does every human being, regardless of age, size, or stage of
development, have an inherent right to life? I firmly believe that the answer is yes.
I believe that the state has a moral and ethical duty to uphold the sanctity of life and protect the
most vulnerable.
Senator Guthrie, please use your leadership to advocate for equal protection for the preborn in
Idaho. Such legislation would be not only just and compassionate but also in line with the
values of the majority of Idahoans, who cherish life and family.
I am confident that by taking a bold stand for the preborn, you will earn the respect and
gratitude of this generation and every generation to follow. I am committed to working with you
and other elected officials to achieve this vital goal. I offer my prayers, my support, and my
unwavering commitment to the cause of life.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Paul Thompson <><
