Abortion advocates at Western Washington University in Bellingham, Wash., took it upon themselves to protect the campus from sidewalk chalkings made by a pro-life student group, alleging the chalked messages to be “hurtful” and “harmful.” The Students for Life of America group (SFLA) at Western Washington had chalked messages that were primarily pulled from Silent No More, a group that seeks to provide support for women who have had abortions. Shortly after completion of the chalkings, a group of pro-abortion students set to destroying the work, pouring water over the messages and scrubbing them away. One SFLA member asked a student
After Senate Democrats blocked an anti-human trafficking bill last week because it lacked language that would allow abortions, pro-life groups have come together to condemn the decision and to advocate for anti-trafficking legislation. “In a stunning display of protecting abortion at all costs, the U.S. Senate failed to defend victims — women and little girls — of sex trafficking. The abortion lobby and their allies in the Senate should be ashamed of themselves,” stated Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America. “How dare they call themselves ‘pro-woman’ when they epically failed to help sex trafficking victims because they would
A federal court has ordered that a liberal Fresno State University professor must pay $17,000 in damages and undergo training on the First Amendment after he violated the free speech rights of pro-life students on campus. Gregory Thatcher, a professor of public health, disagrees with the pro-life message publicized by the Fresno State Students of Life club. But after the club had chalked some pro-life messages on campus, not only did Thatcher destroy them — he recruited some of his own students to help in the destruction. Alliance Defending Freedom took up the pro-life club’s case, and in Fresno State
Over the past six months, students from campuses around the country have been campaigning and collecting donations for Students for Life’s “Sock it to Planned Parenthood” initiative. The goal of this project was to collect 323,999 baby socks — one for every life lost at the hands of Planned Parenthood abortions last year — and deliver them to Capitol Hill in order to convince Congress to defund the abortion giant. Unfortunately, Congressional leaders have not followed through thus far on their promise to end federal funding of Planned Parenthood, but pro-life advocates are not giving up yet. After delivering the
This week, Planned Parenthood finally released its 2015-2016 annual report — about five months later than they were expected to. To spare you the trouble of reading through the whole thing, here are ten things you should know about the report. 1.) Despite preventing 328,348 children from ever celebrating a birthday, Planned Parenthood was very excited to celebrate its own 100th birthday. The report begins with a little “Happy Birthday” message to themselves: We have been here for 100 years, and we’ve been fighting for reproductive health care and rights since day one. We’re going to be here for another 100
Students for Life, a national pro-life organization with over 714 chapters on college campuses, has launched several campaigns in an effort to communicate their pro-life message amidst a nation-wide fight to defund Planned Parenthood. This includes a documentary on abortion which will be shown at over 100 college and medical school campuses, as well as a sock drive in which 323,999 baby socks — the number of abortions Planned Parenthood performed in 2015 — will be delivered to Congress. The film, titled “Hush,” investigates whether abortion providers are telling the truth about the psychological and physical dangers of abortion. Pro-choice
