Obama Threatens to Veto Bill Banning Abortions After 20 Weeks
President Barack Obama has issued a veto threat of a bill the House of Representatives will vote on tomorrow that would ban abortions from after 20-weeks* all the way to birth.
The White House this afternoon issued a Statement of Administration Policy indicating President Obamas advisors would recommend that he veto the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act if it were presented for his signature. The SAP containing a veto threat is standard for occasions when the president will almost certainly veto legislation pending in Congress. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/17/obama-threatens-to-veto- bill-banning-abortions-after- 20-weeks/

Pro-Life Group: Anyone Voting Against 20-Week Abortion Ban Supports
Gosnell
Congress will vote tomorrow on a bill that bans abortions after 20-weeks of pregnancy, and one pro-life group says members of the House that vote against it are associating themselves with Kermit Gosnell.
Gosnell is the abortion practitioner who was convicted on multiple counts of first-degree murder for late-term abortions that were essentially infanticides. The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (H.R. 1797) would ban such abortions in fact banning abortions from 20 weeks up to the day of birth. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/17/pro-life-group-anyone- voting-against-20-week- abortion-ban-supports-gosnell/

Democrat Party Chair: Bill Banning Abortion Up to Birth is Extreme
The House of Representatives will vote tomorrow on a bill that bans abortions nationally starting at 20 weeks of pregnancy, including babies at viability and all the way to the day of birth.
The House of Representatives will vote tomorrow on a bill that bans abortions nationally starting at 20 weeks of pregnancy, including babies at viability and all the way to the day of birth.
But the chair of
the Democratic Party tweeted today against the ban, calling it extreme.
Naturally, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida, the chair
of the Democratic National Committee, didnt tweet that she thinks
abortions ought to remain legal until the day before birth but thats
the position her opposition to the late-term abortion ban puts her on record
as having. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/ 06/17/democrat-party-chair- bill-banning-abortion-up-to- birth-is-extreme/
Two weeks after giving birth to her second child, Julia Schoch received an email that would forever change her life. It was February, 2003, and she was at home recovering from a C-section with her husband, her two-year-old son, and her newborn daughter when her husband Andy told her she had an email that she needed to see immediately. It was from a friend who knew of a 13-year-old pregnant rape victim who needed help. It turned out that Julia was exactly the help this girl and her baby needed.
Its one of those kind of bizarre God stories, explains Julia. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
