Revision as of 03:53, May 25, 2011

By June 2011, most state legislatures will have adjourned for the year, and some for two years. What did politicians who campaigned by claiming to be pro-life actually accomplish?

The Ten Best

State Legislation Comments Political change
Kansas Requires local hospital privileges before an abortion can be performed, establishes meaningful parental consent, stops some insurance funding of abortion, adds ultrasound disclosure, bans webcast abortions, requires facility standards, and prohibits late-term abortions based on fetal pain.[1] This may curtail the large numbers traveling from Missouri to have abortions in Kansas, due to its prior lack of protections. A Democratic Governor and Attorney General were replaced by Republicans.
Indiana Defunded Planned Parenthood. Enough said.
South Dakota Reduces coercive abortions by establishing a 3-day waiting period plus counseling by pregnancy help centers. The abortion industry is not fooling any pro-life leaders in South Dakota.
Florida
Nebraska Banned remote webcast abortions and slightly strengthened parental consent.
Ohio
New Jersey Cut $7.5 million in funding for Planned Parenthood, despite pro-abortion control of the Democratic legislature; also made "Choose Life" plates available.
Utah Expanded the freedom of conscience of providers and hospitals with respect to abortion.[2] Strong leadership in Utah on this issue enables it to benefit from the lowest abortion rate in the nation
Texas

The Ten Worst

State Legislation Comments
Tennessee, where an overwhelming majority of legislators claim to be pro-life. Passed nothing, and then gave pro-aborts a gift by approving putting abortion on the ballot (SJR 127), where the abortion industry can pull down pro-life candidates as the abortion industry spends money to defeat it There's been a lack of socially conservative legislation for years there
Arizona, where big majorities won on pro-life platforms. Only passed three worthless laws: HB 2416, HB 2384, and HB 2443.[3] The RINO Speaker of the House Adams -- now running for Congress -- refused to allow a vote on meaningful pro-life legislation, despite passing by big majorities in committees.
Missouri Nothing, despite passing good laws in prior sessions. A RINO was Speaker of the House.
Pennsylvania Nothing, despite a massive scandal of alleged murders committed by an abortionist.
Oklahoma, which claimed to have elected the most pro-life legislature (and a pro-life governor) in the nation.
Wisconsin Despite having the votes to pass any conservative law, it has done nothing on the issue of abortion.
Georgia, where the governor and many legislators won by claiming to be pro-life Not a single pro-life bill passed.
North Dakota Pretended to support a ban on abortion, but actually passed nothing
Wyoming Though supposedly a conservative state, it failed even to pass an ultrasound bill, with a Republican legislator casting the deciding vote against it in the Senate.[4]
California
