Regardless of anyone’s personal views on abortion, no person should be coerced into participating in an abortion.

“No person should be coerced into participating in an abortion against their moral convictions or religious beliefs. I applaud the Office of Civil Rights and this Administration for taking seriously the conscience rights of healthcare providers and enforcing decades-old legal protections like the Church Amendments. It is imperative that no employee be forced to choose between their job and their beliefs" —Catherine Glenn Foster, President & CEO at Americans United for Life

Congress, FCC seeking easier suicide hotline number ([link removed][UNIQID])
(ABC News) “We’ve had 911 for a long time, we’re familiar with that as Americans but these other ideas, these other services like a 988 program, are essential,” Americans United for Life, Tom Shakely said. “It doesn’t require having a business card, it doesn’t require having a pamphlet, you don’t need to have anything with you, you just remember those numbers.”

Dave Chappelle’s New Stand-Up Special Is Hilarious (And Even Subversively Pro-Life) ([link removed][UNIQID])
(The Federalist) In one simple joke, Chappelle made clear the disastrous effects of a culture which degrades sex and relationships to the point where babies are viewed as afterthoughts to be dispensed with rather than precious lives to be cherished.

O’Rourke Is Wrong on Maternal Mortality and Abortion Restrictions ([link removed][UNIQID])
(National Review) But O’Rourke, like many liberal activists, seems very invested in the false narrative that pro-life policies created a public-health crisis in Texas. While he’s entitled to his own opinion about different types of pro-life laws, he is not entitled to his own facts. Since Texas defunded Planned Parenthood, the birth rate among minors (ages 13-17) in Texas fell by more than 49 percent and the abortion rate among minors fell by more than 57 percent.

The Trump administration’s Protect Life Rule is a win for women ([link removed][UNIQID])
(The Washington Examiner) Taxpayers should not have to subsidize abortion. Defunding facilities that perform abortions is an important policy goal for pro-lifers and taxpayers generally. In addition to the Protect Life Rule, Trump has strengthened the Mexico City policy, ensuring that taxpayers are not subsidizing organizations that promote or perform abortions overseas.

What explains Donald Trump’s war on late-term abortions? ([link removed][UNIQID])
(The Economist) The procedure she describes is quite different from President Donald Trump’s oft-repeated claim that late-term abortions involve babies being “ripped from their mother’s womb”. But it is not difficult to understand why many people, including those broadly in favour of abortion choice, find it problematic. This is also why Mr Trump has seized upon late-term abortion, the most controversial dimension of an issue that has inflamed American politics for almost half a century, as a campaign issue.
