Pro-Life

By Micaiah Bilger, LifeNews - President Donald Trump’s administration signaled its commitment to protecting life again this week in a proposed Department of Health and Human Services strategic plan... The plan states that HHS will serve Americans at “every stage of life, beginning at conception” and up through “natural death,” Opposing Views reports. While the new language will not affect abortion laws, it will help direct public policy under the Trump administration during the next four years.

By U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, National Catholic Register - As Catholics, we share an unshakable belief in our duty to protect the lives of the unborn. Respect and protection of life, from conception to natural death, is a cornerstone of our faith. We have a responsibility to honor God by protecting everyone whom he has formed in his image and blessed with the gift of life, especially the voiceless and most vulnerable... That is one of the reasons I introduced the “Heartbeat Protection Act” (HR 490) in Congress. This pro-life legislation ensures “when a heartbeat can be detected, the baby is protected” from the tools of the abortionist.

By Calvin Freiburger, LifeSiteNews - Defending the indefensible is tricky business. Honestly embracing abortion for what it is tends to scare away anyone with a semi-functioning conscience, so its apologists generally find it easier to play dumb about prenatal development or, better yet, change the subject entirely to unspecified “women’s healthcare.”
