Operation Rescue® is the leading pro-life Christian activist organization in the nation. Operation Rescue® recently made headlines when it bought and closed an abortion clinic in Wichita, Kansas and has become the voice of the pro-life activist movement in America. Its activities are on the cutting edge of the abortion issue, taking direct action to restore legal personhood to the pre-born and stop abortion in obedience to biblical mandates.
Troy Newman, President
Troy Newman has been involved in pro-life activism since 1991. Through innovative new tactics, Newman helped close over a dozen abortion clinic and saw over 40 abortionists stop killing in San Diego County, California. In 1998, Newman became the leader of Operation Rescue, which he rebuilt into a nationally active organization in just a few years. Newman moved his ministry offices to Wichita, Kansas in 2002, where he began an intensive campaign to close George Tiller’s abortion mill. Since relocating to Kansas, Newman has helped close two more abortion clinics, including Central Women’s Services, an abortion mill he bought and is currently converting into OR’s national headquarters and a memorial to the pre-born. Newman’s work has seriously impacted Tiller’s abortion business where today the infamous late-term abortionist faces 19 criminal charges and numerous inquiries with the Board of Healing Arts that could result in the loss of Tiller’s license. Newman is a published author whose works include the book Their Blood Cries Out!
