Leading Pro-Life Group: Biden Will ‘Use Tragic Situations’ to Push Abortion Agenda at State of the Union

“…What I’m seeing in Texas — because of the confusion — is that these women aren’t even being admitted to the hospital. They’re being sent home. They’re being told, ‘call your doctor on Monday morning,’ and they’re not given antibiotics. And then in many times, they do have adverse outcomes. That is not what the law is recommending. The law is recommending doctors continue to provide quality care, but because of all of this confusion, doctors don’t understand, and bad things are happening,” she added. 

Billy pointed to South Dakota as an example of how Republicans are trying to fight abortion misinformation and educate health care professionals about the treatments available to pregnant women experiencing health-threatening or life-threatening conditions in states with abortion restrictions.

This week, lawmakers sent a bill to Gov. Kristi Noem’s (R) desk that requires the “creation of an informational video and other materials describing the state’s abortion law and medical care for a pregnant woman experiencing life-threatening or health-threatening medical conditions.” The bill instructs the South Dakota Department of Health to create an informational video that elaborates on “the state’s abortion law and acts that do and do not constitute an abortion.”

“That is an effort to fight back against the politically motivated confusion that was put in place by the abortion industry,” Billy said. 

Democrats are also seizing on a Alabama Supreme Court’s recent ruling that frozen embryos are considered unborn children under state law. At least three clinics in Alabama have reportedly paused offering IVF since the state Supreme Court issued its ruling.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) is bringing Elizabeth Carr, the first person to be born via IVF in the United States, and Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) — who has had two daughters through IVF and sponsored a recently blocked trojan horse fertility bill — is bringing Illinois reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist Dr. Amanda Adeleye, according to the Hill. 

The Alabama Supreme Court case is centered on whether the Center for Reproductive Medicine can be held liable under the Wrongful Death of a Minor Act after a patient accessed, dropped, and destroyed the frozen embryos of several couples in 2020. The embryos were created via IVF, in which “mature eggs are collected from ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab, [and] then a procedure is done to place one or more of the fertilized eggs, called embryos, in a uterus, which is where babies develop,” according to the Mayo Clinic.

The state’s high court ultimately reversed a lower court ruling that did not recognize frozen embryos as unborn children. The Alabama Supreme Court based its reasoning on the Sanctity of Unborn Life Amendment adopted to the state Constitution in 2018, which declared it “public policy” to recognize “the sanctity of unborn life and the rights of unborn children.”

“This Court has long held that unborn children are ‘children’ for purposes of Alabama’s Wrongful Death of a Minor Act, a statute that allows parents of a deceased child to recover punitive damages for their child’s death,” the opinion reads.

“The central question presented in these consolidated appeals, which involve the death of embryos kept in a cryogenic nursery, is whether the Act contains an unwritten exception to that rule for extrauterine children — that is, unborn children who are located outside of a biological uterus at the time they are killed,” the justices continued. “Under existing black-letter law, the answer to that question is no: the Wrongful Death of a Minor Act applies to all unborn children, regardless of their location.”

Democrats, including President Joe Biden, have been using the decision as part of their pro-abortion and reproductive health campaign. Republicans, many of whom claim to believe life begins at conception, are being told to uncritically support IVF so as not to look “extreme” — despite the moral and ethical quandaries surrounding the process, including disposal, experimentation, longterm storage, eugenic-style embryo selection, and even selective abortions later on.

“When President Biden responded to the Alabama Supreme Court case, he didn’t show any sympathy for the parents in that case who had their embryos destroyed — because the clinic itself failed to keep them in a secure manner and allowed a stranger to walk in, and open the freezer, and take those embryos out,” Billy noted. 

“It’s just another example of [Democrats] choosing not to care for women, not to put the support for women first, and to instead put their political agenda first,” he added. “[They stand in] stark contrast to pro-life states across the country who are putting real services in place for moms, for babies, and for families.”

Biden’s speech to a joint session of Congress will begin at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 7.
