Governor Abbott’s “LIFE” Initiative is Outrageous—and Pointless

[TexasTowelie]

On Friday, Governor Greg Abbott unveiled his latest attack on Planned Parenthood called the “LIFE” initiative in response to a series of heavily edited videos that strongly imply that Planned Parenthood and its affiliates are profiting from the sale of fetal tissue.

Through this “LIFE” initiative, Abbott wants to:

Make it illegal for abortion doctors to alter procedures to preserve fetal body parts
Criminalize any exchange of fetal tissue “for any purpose whatsoever”

1. Greg Abbot is an idiot

[DhhD]

2. There are people out there who were in the process of medical treatment when Abbott

Senator Cornyn seems to not want to shut down the federal government over PP funding.

Senator Cornyn seems to not want to advise Abbott to Expand Medicaid under the ACA.

And Cruz is certainly for shutting down the American federal government and could care less about poor women receiving life saving medical care.

LIFE supporters need to be remembered at election time, especially on the voting ballott.
