If passed into law, the Pregnancy Resource Act would create a program that provides a 50% tax credit for all eligible donations to pregnancy centers in the state that support women in crisis and help children. This would be a huge step toward building a culture of life in the Palmetto State!
Donors who can benefit would be individuals as well as businesses. It is the role of the Church, rather than the state, and her members to care for the vulnerable. As St. Paul writes in his first letter to St. Timothy, “the church is not to be burdened, so that it will be able to help those who are truly widows” (5:16). This program would allow for the members of the Body of Christ to more freely support the women and girls who are in need of loving alternatives to abortion.
Urge the Senate Finance Committee to support S. 32 – The Pregnancy Resource Act – and build a pro-life culture in the Palmetto State!
