Domestic News: In Missouri, without raising a finger the Governor has allowed new legislation to take effect. What legislation? Clinics in Missouri will now be required to perform ultrasounds and allow women to hear the heartbeat of their unborn child prior to performing an abortion. Missouri currently has the 4th most restrictive laws when it […]
As my mom likes to say, “Let me put on my surprise face.” The Obama administration has officially approved the first instance of taxpayer funded abortions under the new national government-run health care program. This is the kind of abortion funding the pro-life movement warned about when Congress considered the bill. The Obama Administration will […]
The morning general session began with a review of the health care reform law. NRLC’s concerns include funding of abortion (obviously), Medicare cuts, and the potential for rationing.

President Obama will issue an executive order stating that restrictions on government subsidies for abortion will be preserved. With Stupak and company on board, the health care bill is all but guaranteed to be passed in the House […]
In response to a proposed last-minute Stupak-like agreement (which is apparently dead now), the president of New York’s Chapter of the National Organization for Women had this to say: Today, women in the United States are fighting for their lives.
