Advancing Life and Liberty Through Action

The Lie In This Bill Is Deadly...

Apr 30, 2024

A disturbing bill pending in Congress is only ONE vote away from passing. It is the most extreme abortion bill Congress has ever considered, and it states abortion is good for minorities. Unbelievable!

In overturning Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court referenced Liberty Counsel’s amicus brief that detailed the racist and eugenic origins of the abortion movement, as well as the ongoing genocide of black and brown children through abortion.

Now the pro-abortion Democrats in Congress want to twist the truth with Orwellian double-speak by declaring, through legislation, the exact opposite of what history and the facts show.

Due to multiple vacancies in Congress, the pro-death abortion lobby needs just ONE Republican to join them, and every state will be forced to allow unlimited abortion up until birth. We cannot allow this to happen. Please, fax Congress now, demanding they VOTE NO on HR 12 and S 701, then read on to set the FACTS straight. — Mat

Sections 2.12 and 2.13 of the so-called “Women’s Health Protection Act” claim that abortion bans are “racist” actions meant to harm minorities.

My amicus brief, which was cited by the High Court in the Dobbs case that overturned Roe v. Wade, proves the exact opposite is true.

The evil origin of abortion ...

As we noted in our brief, the modern abortion movement sprouted from the evil, genocidal plans of eugenicists like Charles Darwin and Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger.

Coined in the 1880s by Francis Galton, a British scientist and cousin of Charles Darwin, “eugenics” is “the science of improving stock ... to give to the more suitable races or strains of blood a better chance of prevailing speedily over the less suitable than they otherwise would have.”

Put simply, the sinister goal of the eugenics movement was to eliminate “unfit” and “undesirable” people — those with mental and physical disabilities as well as certain races and ethnicities.

Darwin put eugenics in the title of his 1859 book On the Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life (emphasis added). And, in his 1871 book, The Descent of Man, Darwin unabashedly revealed his racist and white supremacist thinking.

Margaret Sanger founded Planned Parenthood to implement “the gradual suppression, elimination and eventual extinction, of defective stocks—those human weeds which threaten the blooming of the finest flowers of American civilization.”

In 1916, Sanger opened her first of many contraceptive “clinics” in minority communities. By 1962, Planned Parenthood President Alan Guttmacher endorsed abortion for eugenic reasons. Like Sanger and Adolph Hitler, Guttmacher wanted to systematically eliminate “undesirables.”

But this quest to kill minorities isn’t simply ancient history. Despite Section 2.12’s claim that access to abortion “has always been deficient in the United States for Black, Indigenous, Latina/x, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and People of Color (BIPOC) and their families,” our brief proves the exact opposite to be true even now in the 21st century.

According to one peer-reviewed study we shared with the High Court, “black women have been experiencing abortions at a rate nearly four times that of white women for more than 30 years.”

Another study we shared, this one from the Centers for Disease Control’s most recent data, black women accounted for 33.6% of all reported abortions in 2018, even though they make up 13% of women in the United States.

And in Mississippi, which brought Dobbs to the Court, 72% of abortions were performed on black women in 2018, compared to just 24% on white women and 4% on women of other races.

The abortion lobby wants to legislate lies to continue its evil agenda of killing babies coast to coast. We cannot allow Congress to legislate these lies into law.

As I said above, due to multiple vacancies in Congress, the pro-death abortionists need only ONE Republican to vote their way to make unlimited abortion the law of the land.

Congress needs to hear from you NOW. Demand they hold the line against Planned Parenthood and its racist, genocidal schemes.

Liberty Counsel Action continues to defend life on Capitol Hill. We are fighting an onslaught of legislation, amendments, and policies that push a culture of death.

Even outside of Capitol Hill we are working to train volunteers and equip leaders to understand what is at stake and how to fight for principles of life in your own state. This month we conducted two national training seminars — one on abortion initiatives in the states and the other on election integrity and the political action of pastors, churches, and nonprofits.

And when you give to our ministry, you stand in the gap and help us protect the unborn from the most brutal death imaginable. We need your help to make abortion unthinkable. DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT TODAY!
