Talks presented by STOPP International founder Jim Sedlak across rural Nebraska attracted hundreds of concerned citizens who want to stop the abortion giant's advance into the Cornhusker State. Jim was there on a speaking tour that spanned two weeks and saw him giving multiple talks daily. He also conducted packed activist training workshops in every location that Planned Parenthood has projected it will encroach into in Nebraska.

Jim attracted a great deal of media attention. Portrayed by the Norfolk Daily News as "a big, burly man" who "rails against Planned Parenthood with the zeal of an old-time, tent-show revival preacher," the reporter described his presentation to a capacity crowd at the Norfolk Knights of Columbus Hall, saying that Sedlak "disseminates facts and figures about the organization he's opposed for 25 years with a vengeance."

The article goes on to say, "He wants people to listen to what he has to say and then 'peacefully and prayerfully' stop Planned Parenthood from 'killing babies.'"

You can watch the video news coverage of his appearance, where Sedlak calls Planned Parenthood a "sex business preying primarily on our children."

Hats off to the newly formed Nebraskans Against Planned Parenthood for organizing the tour and involving media, and to Jim who has successfully traveled through Nebraska sowing seeds of dissent against the abortion giant, as he lays the foundation for the solid wall of resistance that will stop Planned Parenthood's expansion into Nebraska.

STOPP national director Rita Diller was in Nebraska last week as well, keynoting the Lincoln Right to Life "Celebration of Life" Banquet. She also spoke to a full house at Hope Evangelical Free Church, near Planned Parenthood's new facility there, and worked one-on-one with sidewalk counselors.

Diller delivered a message of hope to those in Lincoln who have been fighting Planned Parenthood for years, using the example of the closure of 19 Planned Parenthood facilities in the Texas Panhandle over a 12-year period as an example of how the abortion giant can be ousted by persistent prayer and building a solid wall of resistance to Planned Parenthood by meeting it at every turn.

Diller was also interviewed by secular talk show host Coby Mach and appeared on Catholic radio with Greg Schleppenbach, the state director of the Nebraska Catholic Bishops' Pastoral Plan for Pro-life Activities. She recorded radio spots with the Nebraska Family Council while there and also recorded internet ads produced by the Nebraska Family Council that will be available to all the groups in the state that are joining hands to fight Planned Parenthood.
