Abortion travel is 'the new ground zero' in post-Roe America
Abortion travel is a new battleground since the Dobbs decision overturned Roe v. Wade — and pro-life activists say that more is needed in local communities to reach women before they leave the state.
According to Planned Parenthood’s former “special affiliate,” the Guttmacher Institute, abortion travel has ticked upward in recent years. “In the decade prior to 2020, the proportion of abortion patients traveling out of state to obtain care rose steadily, from 6% in 2011 to 9% in 2020,” Guttmacher wrote.
But since the Dobbs decision in June of 2022, abortion travel has spiked due in part to private abortion funding organizations, corporate dollars, and increased assistance to fly women to obtain abortions out of state.
Pro-Life States Aren't Just Banning Abortions, They're Helping Pregnant Women
Media outlets on the Left constantly berate pro-lifers and accuse them of forgetting about children after they're born. They push false narratives that the pro-life movement wants to deprive women of opportunities and prevent children from obtaining a safe and fair upbringing. In actuality, pro-lifers have a long history of assisting women and families with options, materials, and a hopeful message that supports their lives.
Biden administration attempts to defy state pro-life laws with HIPAA expansion
The Biden administration is preparing an expansion to Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), as promised earlier this year, which would seemingly serve to protect abortion and infringe on laws passed in pro-life states.
Politico reported that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is preparing the final draft of the new rule, called the HIPAA Privacy Rule to Support Reproductive Health Care Privacy, under the Office of Civil Rights.
State AGs said the rule "would unlawfully interfere with States' authority to enforce their laws, and does not serve any legitimate need."
REFLECTIONS
It's normal to view our embryos as our prenatal children.
Some parents get tattoos to memorialize the children we've lost through miscarriage. I'm reflecting this morning on how profoundly pregnancy loss can affect us. I've had two miscarriages, both around the 6 week mark, both deeply upsetting when they happened and, if I give myself time to think about it, deeply upsetting to this day.
KNOW THIS
Doctors said her babies were 'killing each other' in the womb. She refused to give up and abort.
One mom is sharing the story of how doctors pressured her to kill her preborn children, warning her that they were "killing each other" in the womb. She resisted, and now her twin daughters are thriving. Laura Watson explained that her babies had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, a rare condition in which blood flows unevenly between the children in the placenta.
