Now it's Central Texas' turn

*
Last week Sarah Palin made appearances in both East and West Texas, one in Beaumont and two in Midland. Early in February she headlined two more East Texas events, one in downtown Houston and another in the Bayou City suburb of Cypress. The former Alaska governor hasn't been seen publicly in Central Texas since early December, when the Going Rogue book tour brought her to Fort Hood (She was also in North Texas the same day at a Plano book signing).

It's Central Texas' turn again. As we noted last month, the first woman to be the GOP's candidate for vice president will be in Texas' capitol city April 29 to deliver a speech for Heroic Media. That organization, according to the Austin American-Statesman's Jason Embry:
"...places Internet, television and billboard advertisements to reach out to women with unplanned pregnancies and connect them with pregnancy resource centers (with hopes that they will not seek abortions)."
The event will be held at the Austin Convention Center, and General Admission tickets start at $50, while seats in the Reserved Section are priced at $100 each. You can purchase tickets online here.

Pro-life group says Gov. Palin to speak in Austin April 29

*
Rocky Hernandez of Heroic Media e-mailed us to announce that Sarah Palin will speak on behalf the life-affirming organization April 29 at the Austin Convention Center.

Heroic Media is an outreach of Majella Cares, an Austin-based non-profit that places television, internet and billboard advertisements to help women and babies in crisis pregnancies. Their advertisements provide help line numbers that connect women with pregnancy resource centers. Since Heroic Media entered the Austin market, it claims that the abortion ratio (number of abortions for every 1,000 live births) there has dropped 24 percent.

Heroic Media President Brian Follett said the organization is pleased to have Palin speak:
"We are honored to have her share her experiences and convictions regarding this issue with us. Sarah’s faith and commitment to protecting life at every stage is evident in her words and actions."
