Multimedia Pro-Life News

ProLifeNews.tv recently interviewed Kristan Hawkins, National Director for Students for Life of America.  We asked her why they were sponsoring an event in Cincinnati, Ohio.  She replied:

“We’ve been having “Defund Planned Parenthood” events in Washington (DC), and we decided to move it to Cincinnati this time to ask the NAACP to join us in our camplaign, to call on congress to investigate “Defund Planned Parenthood”.  The NAACP is the largest organization to represent African American rights.  What better right is there than the right to life?”

There were many black leaders present, including Dr. Alveda King, niece of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rev. Childress from BlackGenocide.org, Day Gardner of the National Black Pro-Life Union and more.

Operation Rescue reports that a late term abortion facility in Cleveland, The Center for Women’s Health, will be closed due to “over a dozen code violations”.

The closing of this facility adds yet another to the string of abortion facilities that have been forcibly shut down for health violations in the last two months.

One of the tactics of the pro-life movement has been to push for health and safety standards at abortion facilities, and then encourage the enforcement of those laws after they are passed.

“The closure of Ruddock’s clinic shows that the implementation of standards are effective at stopping abortion until it can be banned nationally. Standards are useful tools that are putting abortionist clinics out of business in droves,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “As a result, our land is not only a safer place for women, but also for the child in the womb.”
