In keeping with the Debunker’s Handbook, let me start by stating the truth. The Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act, which was recently introduced in the Senate, will not reduce government funding for women’s heath care. Not by a single penny! The Act will merely affect how Title X funding is distributed to the health care […]
[Today’s guest post by Rebecca Downs is part of our paid blogging program.] As you have no doubt heard by now, a federal judge struck down a challenged provision of the Texas pro-life omnibus bill as unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Lee Yeakel ruled that the requirement that abortionists have admitting privileges at a hospital within […]
The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) is an Act intended to ensure “reasonable workplace accommodations for workers whose ability to perform the functions of a job are limited by pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition.” The Huffington Post describes the types of women that could be helped by this legislation: When Heather Wiseman began to […]

Marcotte lashes out against laws that mandate informed consent for abortion, claiming that such laws are based on a misogynist assumption that women are “too stupid to understand abortion.” In her words: Sadly, however, old-fashioned bigotry trumps common sense […]

Today’s post is by guest author Nulono. For months now, I’ve been tracking the progress of North Dakota’s personhood bill, HB 1450, the Defense of Human Life Act. Things were looking pretty good; it passed the House with a larger margin than 2009’s bill, and it was written to deal with issues that had been […]

Gender selective abortion specifically has been an issue seen internationally. In Indiana, legislation which would require doctors to point out the connection with increased breast […]
There’s been a lot of talk lately about legislation related to abortion and/or fetal life. Of course there is the Pence Amendment. I’ve seen people use this legislation as evidence that pro-lifers really don’t care about abortion and really do just want to control everyone’s sex lives by preventing them from accessing vital health care […]
Live Action continues to release undercover videos of its sex trafficking sting. In my opinion, the New Jersey video (released first) captured the most egregious behavior. Still, check out what’s coming out of Richmond, Falls Church, Roanoke, and Charlottesville. The New Jersey and Richmond videos were featured in last night’s Expose Planned Parenthood webcast, which […]
