The University of Texas in Houston School of Public Health (UTSPH) has removed evidence from its website showing Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast as its "partner agency." The removal comes after STOPP revealed last week that the UT Prevention Research Center is partnering with Planned Parenthood in its core activity, "the diffusion of effective health promotion programs to health and education agencies, and the provision of training to health agency professionals to develop and evaluate effective health promotion programs locally and nationally."

Celebrities support new pro-abortion 
campaign 'Draw the Line'
Christian Post
Many of Hollywood's biggest stars expressed their support for a new pro-abortion campaign aimed at furthering the cause of women's reproductive choices. Conservatives blame the increase in advocacy for abortion on political measures being taken by legislators around the country. Paul E. Rondeau, executive director of the American Life League, had stated that with the increase in campaigns advocating for the termination of life that it is time for conservatives to stand up and fight for those without a voice. "This is the most abortion-addicted administration in my lifetime and I've seen quite a few presidents ... We have to change the culture of death mentality and the exceptions-case mentality in Washington," Rondeau previously told The Christian Post. The new star-chocked campaign, "Draw the Line," was created by the Center for Reproductive Rights and was launched to further support the centers' own Bill of Reproductive Rights.

Obamacare subsidizes abortions for 
women making $90,000
Townhall
How rich do you have to be in Barack Obama's America to pay the whole tab for your own abortion? What about a divorced 38-year-old public school principal who has three children and earns $90,000 per year? Would she need to personally pay the full fair to have a doctor kill her fourth child while that child was still in her womb? Under Obamacare, the federal government will force taxpayers to help her buy insurance that pays for abortions.

Two Baptist universities join legal 
fight against abortion mandate
Baptist Press
Underscoring once again it's not a Catholic-only issue, two Baptist colleges have filed suit against the Obama administration's abortion/contraceptive mandate, saying they're standing up for what Baptists long have defended----religious freedom. The Oct. 9 lawsuit by Houston Baptist University and East Texas Baptist University is the 33rd suit against the mandate, which requires employers to provide employee health insurance that covers contraceptives and abortion-inducing drugs. The latter drugs often are labeled "morning-after" or "week-after" pills and come under brand names such as Plan B and Ella, and can act after fertilization and even after implantation, thereby causing a chemical abortion. Churches are exempt from the mandate, but religious organizations----such as Christian colleges, hospitals and businesses----are not.
