Nurses at New York’s Mt. Sinai Hospital will no longer be forced to participate in abortions if doing so violates their convictions.
This change in policy follows a request from Alliance Defending Freedom submitted to HHS Office of Civil Rights on behalf of a Mt. Sinai nurse and a lawsuit filed against the hospital. In 2009, nurse Cathy Cenzon-DeCarlo was forced to participate in an abortion despite her religious objections to the procedure.
A heartfelt story from LifeNews.com.
Jade Clark was told by doctors her unborn son would not survive, and that she should just abort him. She chose not to, and today her son is 17 months old and happy.
Doctor Curtis Lowery refers to unborn children as “material” during official legislative hearing.
Yesterday the House Public Health Committee voted to pass SB134 by Senator Jason Rapert. The bill prevents abortion at or after the twelfth week of pregnancy if a fetal heartbeat is detected—except in cases of rape or incest or to save the life of or prevent grave physical harm to the mother. The bill passed easily, but what was bizarre was chilling testimony from a representative from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
