were close to those of JustLife Action on economic and military policy but who favored abortion rights and, therefore, did not merit endorsement.
Despite its limited success in the 1992 elections, JustLife Action remained firmly committed to its consistent pro-life position. Initially, Justlife and JustLife Action intended to focus their educational and legislative activities on the application of the consistent life ethic to children. Among other things, they planned to emphasize what they view as the inconsistencies between defending the rights of children and the proposed Freedom of Choice Act. Both organizations hired Jill Mann as their new director after the 1992 election. Mann emphasized that if JustLife Action was to remain viable as a PAC, it must have sufficient funds and other forms of support to give to candidates. In a post-election interview, Mann suggested that in the 1992 elections, JustLife Action could have focused on fundraising earlier in the election cycle. She also suggested that JustLife might have identified potentially credible candidates earlier and given more support to these candidates in the primaries. For future elections, Mann hoped to inform JustLife supporters about ways to become more active as well as to provide opportunities for greater participation.
After careful consideration of their financial situation, however, JustLife and JustLife Action terminated their national organizations in 1993. Although membership in JustLife had grown steadily, contributions to JustLife Action had sharply declined. Both organizations were in debt, and fundraising efforts in 1993 had been largely unsuccessful. It appears that in the polarized world of abortion politics, there was not a sufficiently sizable constituency for a PAC that endorsed a consistent ethic of life.
