CPCs sound pretty good to most people but not to the powerful pro-abortion movement that wants abortion to be the only choice. Polling by Susan B. Anthony Pro-life America shows that 76% of American voters strongly favor pro-life pregnancy centers.
When the Supreme Court this summer overturned Roe v. Wade and returned the abortion issue to the voters of each state, pro-abortion forces turned immediately to violence. CPCs have been vandalized and fire-bombed. Volunteers have received death threats.
Pro-abortion members of Congress and the Biden Administration have said and done virtually nothing to stop the violence. In fact, members of Congress, most notably Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), became even more unhinged in their anti-CPC rhetoric.
Warren told reporters, "We need to shut them [CPCs] down here in Massachusetts, and we need to shut them down all around the country." Why would Senator Warren and her allies oppose women who chose life having a place to go for help? Later she made this outrageous statement, "You should not be able to torture a pregnant person like that." So, to Senator Warren it is torture when mostly Christian pregnancy centers help women who chose life for their unborn children.
Now, CPCs are facing another powerful force — Big Tech - who wants to "cancel" them. Yelp.com, the consumer review website, has decided to "flag" CPCs with a consumer notice warning that CPCs may not have a "licensed medical professional" on site. It is obvious that what concerns them is that there are no abortionists on-site at the CPCs. No doubt Yelp won't be the last woke company to join the anti-life "mob." Some corporations are threatening to cancel investment in states that protect the sanctity of life.
God bless CPCs who are helping countless women bring their precious children into the world. It is important that we tell CPCs and their brave staffs they are not alone in this battle.
What You Can Do:
1. Donate to your local CPC. They are non-profits so they need generous donations to help keep their doors open.
2. Pray for CPC volunteers.
3. Pray for women who are struggling with the decision about whether to save their babies.
