An interesting bill is working its way through the TN legislature entitled The Freedom from Coercion Act. Basically this bill would require the posting in abortion facilities signage advising women/girls that they cannot be coerced into an abortion and that they have the force of law to protect them. There is support/help available . It also provides the threat of penalties to providers who fail to post or participate in such coercion.
Is this needed? Will it help? Yes.
Almost everyone knows of someone who was unduly pressured by some significant other be it a parent, boyfriend and even husband to abort or else. Sometimes it is physical violence or loss of support or residence. Would it help to know that the law is on your side and there is help available? Absolutely! Is the abortion industry a silent accomplice. I can tell you yes. Sometimes they are not so silent. They are trained like telemarketers. Ask Carol Everett or Abby Johnson! They will tell you that they are trained to find your worst fear and emphasize it. Abortion is an industry and darn profitable one.
Now I am finding it interesting that some supporters of the abortion industry are worried about this bill interfering with the parent/child relationship, but vigorously support judicial bypass when minors want to get an abortion without their parents knowledge/consent.
Will watch this one!
