History of Operation Rescue

The history of Operation Rescue involves a split between the original American anti-abortion group and a branch of the original group. The original ''Operation Rescue'' group is now known as ''Operation Save America'', while the branch, once known as ''Operation Rescue West'' is now known as ''Operation Rescue''.
==1980s==
Operation Rescue was founded by Randall Terry in 1986.〔(Drive Against Abortion Finds a Symbol: Wichita )〕 The slogan of Operation Rescue was "If you believe abortion is murder, act like it's murder."〔(Abortion ), by Janet Hadley〕 Randall Terry stepped down as director of Operation Rescue in early 1990, appointing Keith Tucci as his successor to lead the national organization, then called ''Operation Rescue National'' (ORN).
Operation Rescue's initial tactics involved peaceful sit-in demonstrations to block the doors at abortion clinics in Cherry Hill, NJ and select boroughs of Metropolitan NY, inspired by decades-earlier civil rights demonstrations led by Dr. Martin Luther King in the 1960s. Operation Rescue sprang to infamy during the 1988 Democratic National Convention in Atlanta, Georgia, where over 1,200 OR members and supporters were arrested in July and August, capturing national attention. Independent OR-style organizations cropped up around the country during these early years, the most successful being the California organization, Operation Rescue West (ORW), founded by OR’s National Tactical Director, Jeff White. In 1988 it held 182 blockades resulting in 11,732 arrests, and in 1989 12,358 people were arrested at 201 blockades. By 1990 Operation rescued owed $400,000 in fines. At its peak OR members had a staff of 23 and received a million dollars in annual donations.
The N.O.W. and abortion clinics filed lawsuits against OR beginning in 1988. The suits alleged violations of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO), adding Randall Terry and Operation Rescue into the National Organization for Women v. Scheidler cases which were rejected twice over a 20-year period by the Supreme Court of the United States in favor of Scheidler.
