“Neither political conservatives nor liberals have a monopoly on human rights. The issue of abortion is so fundamental a question that it makes perfect sense why the spectrum of life-affirming views cannot be accurately represented by any one political party or ideology." —Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO of Americans United for Life

(The Daily Caller) “How does it make sense to allow a non-physician to perform an invasive and dangerous procedure?” Steven H. Aden, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel at Americans United for Life, said in a statement. “Virginia is courting disaster by advancing this retrograde legislation,” Aden added. “Abortion will become even more dirty and dangerous in Virginia, patient care will degrade, and women seeking care will be at greater risk.”

(Breitbart) Americans United for Life (AUL) stated the pro-life organization is “appalled by the flippant approach that many Virginia politicians are taking towards the wellbeing of the state’s women and girls.” “This is a tremendous setback,” said Katie Glenn, AUL government affairs counsel, adding: But, as we have seen in the past, such as when Gov. Ralph Northam proposed letting a born-alive survivor of abortion die due to lack of care and treatment, pro-abortion extremism galvanizes many more Americans to protect life in their state. I look forward to partnering with those concerned citizens every step of the way to protect life throughout this critical year.

Charlie Camosy on human progress and the challenge of achieving contentment ([link removed][UNIQID])
(Life, Liberty, and Law) Charlie Camosy, Associate Professor of Ethics at Fordham University and author of "Resisting Throwaway Culture: How a Consistent Life Ethic Can Unite a Fractured People", returns to "Life, Liberty, and Law" with Tom Shakely and Noah Brandt to speak about the good news that the 2010s were "the best decade ever" for billions of people. Charlie, Tom, and Noah reflect on the strange reality that, even as things appear to be better than ever, we so often feel as if the world is on the brink of collapse. Are we measuring human progress in the right ways? Why is it so difficult to achieve a feeling of contentment despite material prosperity?

Rep. Jody Hice: How the media subtly vilifies the pro-life movement ([link removed][UNIQID])
(Washington Examiner) To say the pro-life movement is “anti-abortion” denies that we equally care about the mother and preborn babies, as well as children who have been born into difficult circumstances. Our cornerstone belief is that life is a gift from God and ought to be protected. This commitment to life and activism in our communities both go a long way in protecting the weakest members of our society.

Will a Supreme Court Case Spell the Beginning of the End of Abortion? ([link removed][UNIQID])
(The National Law Journal) The anti-abortion organization Americans United For Life goes a step further, urging the justices in an amicus brief to reexamine the landmark abortion rights decisions Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. The brief contends that Roe has remained “radically unsettled” 47 years after the ruling. “After abandoning the constitutional rationale for the abortion right espoused in Roe, a majority of the Court has not settled on a coherent rationale, and the centralization of the abortion issue in the Court has made the Court and the Justices the focus of ferocious campaigns of personal destruction,” wrote Clarke Forsythe, counsel of record.
