Push for More Abortion Funding During Congressional Hearing
A testy hearing on a touchy
subject took place on the House floor this morning. But, before the Subcommittee
on the Constitution and Civil Justice could introduce its witnesses and
begin the debate on whether or not American taxpayers should have to fund
abortions, in regards to the Abortion Insurance Full Disclosure Act, they
had to get past Round One.
For several minutes, Chairman Trent Franks (R-AZ) and Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) argued whether Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.) could testify about the legislation on behalf of her district in Washington, DC. The subcommittee, voicing a rule previously agreed upon, ultimately rejected her testimony. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Obama Appoints Obama Donor to Investigate IRS Targeting Pro-Life Groups
It’s
bad enough that the Internal Revenue Service was caught targeting pro-life,
conservative and religious groups under the Obama administration. Now,
President Barack Obama has appointed a political crony to investigate
the scandal.
The IRS has been found to be targeting pro-life and conservative groups because of their positions and, this summer, a tape was released showing a disturbing phone call the Internal Revenue Service placed to a non-profit organization telling it to keep its Christian faith and views on abortion to itself. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Dear
Congress: Get Taxpayers Out of the Abortion Business
This morning
there is a hearing on H.R. 7, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.
While abortion itself is a divisive issue (with a majority of Americans
being pro-life), most people agree that taxpayers should not be forced to
pay for it.
This morning
there is a hearing on H.R. 7, the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act.
While abortion itself is a divisive issue (with a majority of Americans
being pro-life), most people agree that taxpayers should not be forced to
pay for it.
A CNN poll from
April 11, 2011 found that 61% of Americans oppose using public funds for
abortion and a Quinnipiac University poll from January 2010 found that 67%
of Americans opposed funding abortion. Here is our primer on the legislation.
Please call your Member of Congress to support H.R. 7 and call for a vote
soon on the legislation. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Jahi McMath’s Health “Improving” After She Gets Feeding, Breathing Tubes
The lawyer for
the family of Jahi McMath, the 13-year-old who has been declared brain dead,
said Wednesday that doctors successfully inserted a gastric tube and tracheotomy
tube into the teenager at an as yet undisclosed facility.
Jahi was transferred
from Oakland Children’s Hospital January 5 after a protracted legal
battle between the family and the hospital which declared Jahi brain dead
December 12 and sought to remove her from a ventilator. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Restaurant Owner With Down Syndrome Captures The American Dream
You might not expect a child with Down syndrome to grow up and become a
small-business owner — but that’s exactly what Tim Harris did.
From the time he was 14 years old, his parents say, Harris was determined to own a restaurant. His dream came true several years ago when his father helped him get it off the ground. Today, “Tim’s Place” is thriving in the business of “breakfast, lunch and hugs.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Hangover Star Zach Galifianakis to Headline Pro-Abortion Fundraiser
Yesterday,
LifeNews noted that Zach Galifianakis, the comedian who has become a household
name due to his dopey sidekick antics in movies like Hangover and Due Date,
will participate in a fundraiser for a pro-abortion group. In fact, the
ad for the event list him at the top of the links to the comedians involved.
Galifianakis doesn’t appear
to have much of a history of promoting abortion and, in fact, Google searches
turn up virtually nothing apart from stories related to the pro-abortion
event he will help headline. LifeNews contacted Galifianakis’s publicist
for comment and has not heard back. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/Yesterday,

Picture of Father Brushing Daughter’s Hair While Holding a
Baby Goes Viral
Those
of us involved with pro-life blogging have all stumbled upon a particular “pro-choicer”
online: the one who has designated himself the ultimate judge of who should
be allowed to have children.

You know the type. It’s
gay activist Dan Savage, who said in November that women should be forced to
have abortions as he sees fit: “There’s too many goddamn people on
the planet. You know, I’m pro-choice, I believe that women should have
a right to control their bodies. Sometimes in my darker moments, I’m anti-choice.
I think abortion should be mandatory for about 30 years.” http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
Catholic Bishops Call for Nine Days of Prayer to End Abortion
The nation’s Catholic bishops announced a new campaign calling on Catholics to pray for nine days seeking an end to abortion. The pro-life prayer campaign leads up to the tragic 41st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision that allowed virtually unlimited abortions in the United States. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/

Catholics Upset Notre Dame Complying With Obama’s Contraception
Mandate
OCatholics are upset that the University of Notre Dame is complying with President Barack Obama’s controversial HHS mandate that forces colleges, businesses and religious groups to pay for birth control and abortion-causing drugs for their employees. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/
