By Theresa Bonopartis I am glad Governor Cuomo’s abortion expansion bill was defeated here in New York. While the Governor, Planned Parenthood and other pro abortion activists were busy pushing their bill, I was, as I always am, working with women and teens devastated from abortion. It always amazes me that in the middle of […]
At The Wall Street Journal, James Taranto, a self-described member of the “mushy middle” on abortion, writes: One of the strongest practical arguments in favor of the Roe regime is that abortion has been around since time immemorial and outlawing it only drove it underground, leading women to endanger themselves by seeking out the services […]

Abortion Isn’t Really A Choice When It’s The Only Option Offered Recently Planned Parenthood announced that it was dropping its use of the term “pro-choice” to describe its policies and activities (although other abortion advocacy groups are proudly continuing to use this term). There has been much speculation as to why Planned Parenthood is changing […]
Today is the International Day of Human Rights, and here’s Planned Parenthood’s tweet about it: Unfortunately, for abortion advocates, only some voices count.
