Washington, DC – The National Pro-Life Religious Council

restore protection to unborn children. This year’s recipient is
Mr. Tony Perkins, President of the Family Research Council.
Rev. Frank Pavone, President of the NPRC, praised the work
and example of Mr. Perkins: “Tony has an incredible record of
uniting Christians of all denominations in legislative efforts
that protect the rights of unborn children. We are particularly
grateful for the pioneering way he has inspired and empowered
pastors to join in this cause.”
