A pro-life group is urging<\/a> House Speaker Paul Ryan to extend the investigation by the Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives\u00a0—\u00a0which has been looking into the possible illegal trafficking of fetal body parts in the United States\u00a0—\u00a0into the next legislative session.<\/p>\n

Operation Rescue president Troy Newman stated in a letter<\/a>\u00a0to Speaker Ryan, \u201cMaking a public commitment to extend the Select Panel on Infant Lives is something positive you can do now to reassure those in the pro-life\/religious liberty communities that justice will be done, and that promises have substance.”<\/p>\n

Newman also stated that due to the “stonewalling and lack of cooperation” by fetal tissue procurement agencies as well as abortionists, “the Select Panel has not been able to fully complete their investigation….\u00a0We urge House Speaker Paul Ryan to commit now to extending the Select Panel on Infant Lives into the next Congressional Session, so they have the time they need to finish their work.\u201d<\/p>\n
