Planned Parenthood persists in denying abortion-breast cancer link
Even though 53 out of 66 studies done since 1957 show an increased risk of breast cancer after induced abortion, Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards sent out an impassioned plea for money to fight new Kansas legislation that she deceptively claims will “force doctors to lie to their patients. Even if the woman seeking abortion is a victim of rape or incest, her doctor will lie to her about her risk of breast cancer on the orders of Kansas lawmakers. How awful. How cruel. Help us stop it,” she says. Richards is upset because the new legislation requires abortionists to warn women about the correlation between induced abortion and breast cancer.
She then says that there is a “complete lack of evidence that abortion will increase the risk of breast cancer.” Really, Cecile? read more...

Bill puts Planned Parenthood last in line for funds
An ideological battle about abortion is being waged in the Ohio Statehouse as lawmakers consider a bill that would essentially take away federal family planning grants from Planned Parenthood Affiliates of Ohio. Legislators last month removed a plan to include the funding changes in a budget bill, but now the plan has returned in House Bill 298, which is pending before the House Health Committee. The bill calls for setting up a ranking system that would put certain health care providers last in line for federal family planning money. read more...

Maine governor signs budget zapping $400K to abortion biz
Maine Governor Paul LePage has delighted pro-life advocates today by initially pushing for and now signing a state budget into law that de-funds an abortion business that also funds Planned Parenthood.

He signed the budget hours after the Maine House and Senate gave their final approval to the bill. In final votes last night, the Senate passed the budget 19-14 and the House approved it 75-61. read more...

China takes 'first concrete step forward', Chen could be released within days
Only hours after speaking to yet another U.S. Congressional hearing by telephone, Chinese forced-abortion opponent Chen Guangcheng has received the first sign of movement from the Chinese government towards granting him a passport. Chen was visited by local officials from his home province, who gave him passport forms.

Chris Smith on Tuesday. read more...

Study: Repeat abortions greatly raise breast cancer risk
A new study published in the Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention in February reported a very statistically significant increased risk of breast cancer for women with previous abortions as opposed to women who have never had one. The study, consisting of 1,351 women and led by researcher Ai-Ren Jiang, reported a statistically significant 1.52-fold elevation in risk for women with induced abortions and a “significant dose-response relationship between (the risk) for breast cancer and number of induced abortions,” meaning the risk climbed with a higher number of previous abortions.A new study published in the Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention in February reported a very statistically significant increased risk of breast cancer for women with previous abortions as opposed to women who have never had one.

Ignore dad's 'ultimatum,' choose life: Pro-life group runs TV ads on BET
A pro-life media organization has launched a media blitz aimed at young black women who are considering abortion. Heroic Media began airing a new commercial entitled “Ultimatum” last Tuesday. It will play more than 60 times during May and June on Black Entertainment Television (BET) and gives viewers a toll-free phone number that will connect them with crisis pregnancy centers and other life-saving resources. The TV spot features a black woman sitting on a set of stairs as she tells women, “So, this pregnancy wasn’t planned. It’s gonna be OK, really.” The ad contrasts the unquestioning love of a child with the fickle affections of a boyfriend who gave his child’s mother an ultimatum: “It’s me or the baby.” read more...
