Austin, TX — Operation Rescue recently conducted an audit of a dozen randomly selected abortion clinic in Texas. What we have discovered is disturbing.
At each and every abortion clinic that was the subject of our investigation, there were at least some violations of state and federal laws as well as health codes. In every case, laws were broken. Because of this, women’s health and privacy are routinely placed at risk.
“Our investigation focused on what the everyday woman would experience as a matter of routine at Texas abortion clinics,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “The general disrespect for the health, safety, and privacy of women – as well as the general public – was more than evident.
On Wednesday, March 2, 2011, Troy Newman and other activists will conduct a press conference in Austin where details of this investigation will be discussed.
Here is a schedule of our activities in Austin on Wednesday, March 2:
Press Conference
10:00 AM on the south steps of the Texas Capitol in AustinPresent evidence that crimes have been committed to the State Attorney General
1:00 AM at the office of the Attorney General, 300 W. 15th Street, Austin, TX 78701Immediately after, we will go to the Capitol to lobby for pro-life legislation.
A full report, including a video, photo gallery, audio recordings and other evidence will be soon available at OperationRescue.org. Watch for updates on this breaking news story.
Please forward this message to your contacts in Texas and encourage them to attend the events there on Wednesday, and pray that the exposure of these abuses will result in the protection of lives, the closing of dangerous abortion mills, and the discipline of scofflaw abortionists who have been found to routinely flout the law.
Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.
