Dear Friends and Partners in the battle for LIFE,
The sweet boy above is Zack and his birth announcement is well overdue. Zack’s mom was intercepted by Bud in 2013 outside of the University of New Mexico’s free standing abortion clinic.
Zack’s mom was cut to the heart when she saw an abortion victim photo and even though she hitch hiked to her appointment after canceling 2 previous appointments, SHE CHOSE LIFE for her son who was born in May 2014.
There are countless Zack’s out there that are scheduled to die, however, with your help we can save them all by making New Mexico, “Abortion Free.”

When our small family moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico five years ago, virtually no one knew about late-term abortions taking place up to the day of birth here. In fact most people we talked to didn’t even know that these abortions were even legal!
Our tireless work, groundbreaking research, and implementation of proven strategies has launched Albuquerque, New Mexico into the national spotlight…As the “Late-Term Abortion Capital of the Nation!”
We have redefined the American “Mission Field” and our efforts as Pro-Life Missionaries have been featured in virtually EVERY major news source in the country: CNN, MSNBC, The Associated Press, The New York Times, The Washington Times, The Los Angeles Times, TIME, Talking Points Memo, The Wall Street Journal, VICE, National Review, Breitbart, World Net Daily, WORLD Magazine, and COSMOPOLITAN…just to name a few!
Since moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2010 our work has consistently been featured among national Pro-Life efforts in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014:
Top Ten Victories of 2011: National Pro-Life Victory #3 New Mexico Abortion Cartel Exposed: Together, the Shavers and Operation Rescue, uncovered and exposed a series of 911 calls that were evidence of life-threatening abortion complications at two Albuquerque abortion clinics. Complaints were filed with the Medical Board and the investigation into these unsafe clinics is progressing. In addition, the role of the University of New Mexico in the abortion industry has been fully documented, and efforts are underway to convince the UNM Regents to cease all participation in abortion and abortion training.
Year in Review: Top Ten Victories from 2012: Shelley Sella, faced a disciplinary hearing before the New Mexico Medical Board in November for gross negligence in a 35week abortion where Sella overused uterine contracting drugs on a woman with a history of a previous Caesarian Section, resulting in a ruptured uterus. The injury was discovered when former OR intern Tara Shaver obtained the 911 call records. OR and Mrs. Shaver filed complaints resulting in the Board action.
2013: Bud and Tara Shaver Named Operation Rescue’s 2013 Pro-Life Persons of the Year.
2014: “Group launches new anti-abortion campaign” (KOB Eyewitness News 4) Protest ABQ www.protestABQ.com The Protest ABQ campaign culminated in the First EVER National Pro-Life Strike Jan. 22-23, 2015. The Protest ABQ campaign has been attributed by national pro-life groups for the dramatic political reversal in New Mexico, “Dramatic Reversal: Abortion Protests Lead to Promising Public Policy Shift in New Mexico” also, “Tectonic Political Shift in New Mexico Prompts Life-Saving Pro-Life Legislation.”
In fact, as I am writing this, the 20 week Late-Term Abortion Ban just passed the second NM House committee and will now proceed to the House floor for a vote! This is one of the ONLY pro-life bills to ever make it to the NM House floor for an up or down vote in New Mexico in over 60 years!
