Studies are now confirming that children in the womb at this age and beyond can sense, feel, and do react to pain. Several pro choice advocates have been shaken by this realization and it’s given them pause in their pro-abortion stance and advocacy. Read more here.

Pro Life News Roundup for June 13, 2019 https://scrtlmi.org/pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-13-2019/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-13-2019 https://scrtlmi.org/pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-13-2019/#respond Thu, 13 Jun 2019 13:00:24 +0000 http://scrtlmi.org/?p=762 The Trump administration announced Wednesday that it would immediately cancel federal funding for research at the University of California San Francisco using human fetal tissue from abortions, weighing in again on a charged issue fraught with scientific and moral implications. The Health and Human Services Department said the decision to cancel the $2 million annual contract came after a “comprehensive review” of its regulations and statutes to ensure consistency and adequate oversight “in light of the serious regulatory, moral, and ethical considerations involved.”  Read the rest at the Washington Times

Social media company Pintrest, known for sharing craft ideas, fashion trends, and other user generated content has banned prolife group Live Action for violating the terms of its service for pornography, spreading conspiracies, and medical misinformation.  When the ban was pointed out by a Pintrest employee, the employee was fired.  It’s yet to be seen if the ban will be reversed or the employee will seek legal action against their former employer under whistleblower protection laws.

In  a case of dueling legal precedents, Illinois now allows abortion up to birth while a town in Texas has declared itself a “sanctuary for the unborn” and banned all abortion procedures with exceptions for the mother’s life.  As more state and local governments pass laws regarding abortion expansion or contraction, a showdown in the Supreme Court becomes all the more certain.

Pro Life News Roundup for June 3, 2019 https://scrtlmi.org/pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-3-2019/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-3-2019 https://scrtlmi.org/pro-life-news-roundup-for-june-3-2019/#respond Mon, 03 Jun 2019 13:00:54 +0000 http://scrtlmi.org/?p=757 The past week saw abortion law reviewed by the US Supreme Court, but no overall review of Roe v Wade was triggered.  Many scholars believe that this is because the laws that were reviewed were not sufficient to overturn Roe v Wade.  The most incendiary outcome of the review was Clarence Thomas’s concurring opinion in which he openly questioned the motives of the abortion movement and its historical roots in eugenics.  Even the New York Times admits “In any other area, the left would look at a history like this and ask whether those formal convictions are the only thing that matters, or whether the eugenic past still exerts a structural influence on the present. And in any other area of policy Thomas’s point about how legal abortion appears, in the aggregate, to act in racist and eugenic ways would be taken as an indicator that something more than just emancipation is at work.”  Read about Thomas’s opinion here and here.  The New York Times opinion piece can be found here.

Entertainment production companies are lining up to pressure Georgia for recently moving forward with anti-abortion legislation in another attempt to trigger a review of Roe v Wade at the Supreme Court.  CBS, NBC, Netflix, and Disney have all announced some level of intent to reduce operations in Georgia as a response.  Read more here.

Pro Life Democrat Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards signed into law a heartbeat bill that bans abortions after a heartbeat can be detected.  This represents a major break from his party, and a rare pro life victory legislated through a state with a sitting Democrat governor.  Read more here.

Finally, Illinois has passed a bill that would repeal the Illinois Abortion Law of 1975 and its provisions that called for spousal consent, waiting periods, criminal penalties for physicians who perform abortions and other restrictions on facilities where abortions are performed. The bill would establish “the fundamental right” of a pregnant woman to have an abortion and states that “a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus does not have independent rights.”  Of course, in its quest to improve ‘women’s access to health care’, the bill also removes many medical requirements on those who would perform abortions.  Read more here and here.

Michigan recently passed legislation that will ban dismemberment abortions, which are exactly what they sound like.  The ban has passed the Michigan House and Michigan Senate and will now go to Governor Gretchen Whitmer, who will most likely veto the potential law.

News Flash – Alabama Votes to Ban Abortion https://scrtlmi.org/news-flash-alabama-votes-to-ban-abortion/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=news-flash-alabama-votes-to-ban-abortion https://scrtlmi.org/news-flash-alabama-votes-to-ban-abortion/#respond Wed, 15 May 2019 22:35:05 +0000 http://scrtlmi.org/news-flash-alabama-votes-to-ban-abortion/ In what many legal experts are considering a setup for a Supreme Court showdown, the State of Alabama has voted to outlaw abortion without exceptions for rape or incest. An exception is in the law for physical danger to the life of the mother. Penalties under the law are only in scope for abortion providers, not the mothers who receive the abortions.

The law is written in such a way as to force an appeal to the United States Supreme Court, where it is presumed that a 5-4 conservative/pro-life majority of Justices would find in favour of the law, possibly also striking down or greatly rolling back the Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton decisions that legalised abortion across the United States in 1973. Pro-Abortion political experts are in a near panic preparing for a legal showdown that will define a generation.
