Excerpts: Family Research Council today released a first-of-its-kind set of maps showing the strength of born-alive abortion survivor protection laws and the legal status of late term abortion in every state. Protections for born-alive abortion survivors became a national conversation when New York and Illinois walked back their protections earlier this year, removing existing protections for infants born alive during failed abortion attempts. According to research conducted by Family Research Council, only fifteen states provide strong protections for born-alive abortion survivors, and only eight require reporting on infants who survive abortion.

Wade“ “CBS News spoke to Karen Cross, the political director of National Right to Life, the oldest anti-abortion rights group in the country.

Senator Manchin is being flooded with phone calls from Planned Parenthood supporters telling him to oppose defunding Planned Parenthood facilities. Planned Parenthood is THE largest abortion provider in the country. The number of abortions performed in 2017 by PP was 332,757, which is over a third of the yearly total.
