A new amicus brief tells the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit that ObamaCare s employer mandate has become the bludgeon with which the government feels empowered to cripple the consciences of religious employers. Alliance Defending Freedom, Americans United for Life, and several state family policy councils filed the brief today. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/03/07/appeals-court-asked-to-strike-down-obamas-hhs-abortion-mandate/

Ruling on Fetal Pain-Abortion Ban Could Lead to Supreme Court Battle

Wade. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/03/07/ruling-on-fetal-pain-abortion-ban-could-lead-to-supreme-court-battle/
Woman Conceived in Rape: It Hurts When People Support Abortion
As UN delegates in closed rooms debate language regarding access to abortion for women who have been violated, two women at an event blocks away presented a powerful argument for breaking the cycle of violence by rejecting abortion even when the child s conception is the result of rape.

But I do understand that people don t put a face to this issue. For most it is just a concept. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/03/07/woman-conceived-in-rape-it-hurts-when-people-support-abortion/
