House Committee Passes Bill Banning Abortions at 20 Weeks of PregnancyThe Obama Administration has dropped its legal battle against a judge’s decision that would allow young girls to purchase the Plan B morning after pill over the counter.

Undercover Call Shows Planned Parenthood Not Reporting Statutory RapeProject Defending Life has released a video that features an undercover phone call placed to Planned Parenthood of New Mexico in Albuquerque by a woman seeking an abortion who indicated she was 14 and her boyfriend was 21. The caller was told by a Planned Parenthood employee that they probably would not need to report even though the relationship qualifies as statutory rape.
The caller asked if her age would be a problem. The Planned Parenthood receptionist responded, “In New Mexico, there’s no limit on when you can have sexual reproduction rights.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/12/undercover-call-shows-planned-parenthood-not-reporting-statutory-rape/

Abortionist Who Killed Babies Born Alive Focus of Texas Special SessionGovernor Rick Perry has called for a special session of the Texas legislature that will, in part, deal with an abortion practitioner who, like Kermit Gosnell, killed babies born alive. Perry yesterday expanded the special session call to include legislation relating to the regulation of abortion procedures, providers and facilities.
“The horrors of the national late-term abortion industry are continuing to come to light, one atrocity at a time. Sadly, some of those same atrocities happen in our own state. In Texas, we value all life, and we’ve worked to cultivate a culture that supports the birth of every child,” Gov. Perry said.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/12/abortionist-who-killed-babies-born-alive-focus-of-texas-special-session/
