Adult Stem Cell Research in Court
/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardIn March 2009, President Obama issued an executive order which simultaneously allowed funding of embryonic stem cell research (ESCR) and rejected funding of adult stem cell research (ASCR). The cutoff of funds for ASCR was accomplished in Section 5, revoking a prior executive order by former president George W. Bush. Pro-lifers have long supported ASCR […]

NRLC Convention Day Three
/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardThe morning general session began with a review of the health care reform law.

NRLC Convention Day Two
/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardLast night, NRLC marked the 25th anniversary of the founding of Teens for Life.

Gloria Steinem on the Colbert Report
/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardI’ve long said that if American women’s organizations are going to avoid obsolescence, they need to actually represent women. And since a plurality of us are pro-life, that means cutting the pro-abortion rhetoric and focusing on issues of concern to all feminists, like equal pay. So far, there are no signs of that happening. But […]
Planned Parenthood’s “Missing Millions”
/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardVarious pro-life news outlets have highlighted this recent Washington Times op-ed. From the title, I initially thought that it would be about the millions of people who are “missing” because they were killed by Planned Parenthood before birth. Actually, the “millions” refers to dollars– it’s about a major financial discrepancy between Planned Parenthood’s records and […]
Words from a sidewalk counselor
/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardIt seems to me that the sidewalk counseling movement is more religiously oriented than the pro-life movement as a whole, which probably explains why SecularProLife.org hasn’t given sidewalk counseling the attention it deserves.
