GA Senate passes abortion bill, would make it a crime to convince woman to abort child

 The Atlanta Journal is well known to be a far left paper and very friendly to the abortion industry. Good for Georgia Right to Life for this piece of legislation.

After more than three hours of debate, the Georgia Senate pounded out a grueling abortion bill that would make it a crime to coerce a woman to have an abortion. Under SB 529, the bill’s sponsor, Chip Pearson (R-Dawsonville), said doctors, boyfriends, pimps and even parents can face criminal charges is they encourage a woman to have an abortion. A mother telling a child not to come home with a child, could go to jail based on the bill, that still has to pass the House. Pearson added that the bill also targets doctors and health care providers, who specifically target women of color, or people who abort based on the gender or race of the child. 

“If there is one thing that we can do as legislators to protect the next generation it would be to make sure abortions are rare, un-coerced and not done to promote some type of agenda related to gender or race of the child,” Pearson said. While it is clear that black women make up more than a majority of the state’s abortions, Pearson said that in 64 percent of abortions in Georgia, “some form of coercion is present.”

GA: Bill outlawing abortions based based on race is moving....PP outraged

From Washington Times

A Georgia bill that would outlaw abortions based on race, color or sex is fueling arguments over whether abortion providers are targeting black women.
The Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act would apply to abortion "the same standards of nondiscrimination" that govern employment, education, government and housing, said Georgia state Rep. Barry Loudermilk, a Republican who introduced the bill last month with bipartisan support.
If enacted, the bill would make it illegal to knowingly solicit, perform or accept funding for race- or sex-selected abortions. The bill has a hearing set for Wednesday before the Judiciary Non-Civil Committee.
The Radiance Foundation has been raising the issue of black abortion with billboards that say, "Black Children Are An Endangered Species" and "toomanyaborted.com."

The Endangered Species Project

Excellent work by GA Right to Life in highlighting this important issue. It is not a coincidence that PP plants their abortion facilities in minority neighborhoods. Ryan Bomberger is featured in the ABC film, an African American man who heads this project. I heard him online tell his story of being the product of forcible rape. I love it when you look at a human face and then dare them to say, you should be dead because of the crime of your biological father. As Catherine Davis says, my people are dying......
