Pro-Life Groups Make Tax-Funded Abortion Ban Priority for Congress

11/18/2010

 
The bill in question is the No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act sponsored by Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey, the chairman of the Congressional Pro-Life Caucus.
It essentially combines all of the many different provisions pro-life advocates have pressed for in numerous bills covering various federal agencies and programs stopping abortion funding that have to be renewed annually and makes them permanent federal law.
Douglas Johnson, the legislative director of the National Right to Life Committee, talked with LifeNews.com about the need for the measure and political hurdles it faces.
“In just two years, President Obama and his allies in Congress have established multiple new pipelines to subsidize abortion and abortion providers. These setbacks underscore the urgent need for enactment of a permanent, government-wide ban on federal funding of abortion — a ban that would endure no matter who is in the White House,” he said.
The House is expected to take up the measure, which Republican leaders put in their Pledge With America, but, after an expected passage in the House, the fate of the legislation is in the hands of Senate Democrats and President Barack Obama, and both support abortion funding at taxpayer expense.

Former Rep. Driehaus withdraws complaint against pro-life group over billboards

11/18/2010

 
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 16, 2010 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Former Representative Steve Driehaus (OH-1) has requested to withdraw a legal complaint against the Susan B. Anthony List. The former politician filed the complaint on October 6 with the Ohio Elections Commission (OEC) alleging that SBA List was falsely accusing him of voting for federal abortion funding when he voted for the national health care law passed earlier this year.

Early in October, SBA List intended to run a series of billboards criticizing Driehaus for his vote in favor of the abortion-funding Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Driehaus, however, called SBA List’s claim that the healthcare law included abortion funding “patently untrue,” and launched a complaint.

American Heritage Girls: A Healthy Alternative to the Girl Scouts

11/16/2010

 
Recently the Boy Scouts of America distanced itself from the Girl Scouts and entered into an agreement with American Heritage Girls to provide mutual support to one another. (read previously posted article for details)

The mission of Boy Scouts has always been to prepare young men to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. 

American Heritage Girls was founded to offer faith-based leadership and character development programs to girls age five to eighteen. Its mission is to “build women of integrity through service to God, family, community and country.” The small all-girl unit within the American Heritage Girls troop structure provides a nurturing environment for learning and building positive relationships, character development and spiritual enrichment.

The Girl Scouts Promoting a pro-abortion agenda

11/16/2010

 
Jim Sedlak of the organization Stop Planned Parenthood has stated that the Girl Scouts have said they would not take a position on abortion or birth control. That is the “official” position. However, many troops affiliate and work with Planned Parenthood, which is the largest provider of abortions in the United States. Further, their sex education programs are obviously aimed at young people and getting kids into sexual situations, which of course means more abortions for Planned Parenthood.

One of the initial controversies was quite revealing. A Girl Scout Council in Waco, Texas gave a “Woman of Distinction” award to the local chief of Planned Parenthood who runs an abortion chamber in Waco. The Waco, Texas area council then called for a boycott of the annual Girl Scout cookie sales and voted to end their partnership with Planned Parenthood of Central Texas.

While the Girl Scouts claim neutrality on abortion, their website is clear. The World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts promoted their participation in a march advocating “sexual and reproductive [abortion] rights.” The participants demanded the following rights:

-1.  All young people must have access to comprehensive sexuality education and sexual and reproductive [abortion] health services, including contraption and emergency contraception, in order to avoid unintended pregnancies.

-2.  Accessible, affordable and safe abortions should be made part of the minimum packages of sexual and reproductive health services.

The World Association of Girl Scouts hosted a panel at the United Nations annual commission on the status of women. According to the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute, the Girl Scouts allowed Planned Parenthood to distribute a booklet entitled, “Healthy, Happy and Hot.” Much of it was too sexually explicit to print in this article. It purports to be a sex guide, advocating every imaginable kind of sexual activity stating, “There is no right or wrong way to have sex. Just have fun, explore and be yourself.” Clearly, nothing is off limits, even for children below the age of consent.
