Yesterday Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed into law HB 2800, known as the Whole Women’s Health Funding Priority Act.

Schweitzer said that “…the measure violates […]
If SecularProLife.org proves anything, it’s that the pro-life movement is far from monolithic. I do believe that our diversity is, on the whole, beneficial. However, we have to be careful to avoid infighting. During the initial debate over Obamacare, I was disappointed by the rift that developed regarding pro-life Democrats.
