November 6, 1999—The League hosts a massive picket of Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois, which performs late term abortions. Helping organize the picket are League attorney Tom Brejcha and pro-life nurse Jill Stanek, who works at the hospital. Stanek blew the whistle when a baby who had survived an abortion was denied medical treatment and allowed to die in a closet; Stanek would later be fired by the hostpital for speaking out. More than 100 people attend the picket.
