California Claims It Can’t ‘Promote Abortion’ Without Pro-Life Centers

California has filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court complaining that it cannot adequately promote abortion services without the help of a tiny number of pro-life pregnancy centers that mostly offer pregnancy tests, diapers and counseling.

The argument comes in a lawsuit against a state law, similar to others that have been struck down elsewhere, that requires the pro-life centers to provide contact information for state-funded abortion services to every woman who walks through their doors.

The state of California argues its abortion promotion is “a brief, non-ideological notice that readers will quickly identify as simply one of many government-mandated notices in the healthcare context.”

The pregnancy centers, however, insist that forcing them to promote abortionists violates their their deeply held religious beliefs.

The state argues that it is requiring pro-life centers to publish telephone numbers for abortion-linked facilities so that women are given the “full spectrum of relevant healthcare.” (Read more from “California Claims It Can’t ‘Promote Abortion’ Without Pro-Life Centers” HERE)
