Dawn, before condemning Ohio Right to Life, you might consider reading about Ohio Right to Life’s support for Medicaid expansion in Ohio.

I am a Conservative Christian. While I have never had an abortion, I take issue with the fact that the Republican Party does very, very little to help pregnant women, children, and families, while claiming to be morally superior to pro-choice advocates. In addition, portraying disrespectful photos of Hillary Clinton and not getting to the bottom of WHY she is pushing for these more liberal abortion laws or responding with suggestions and real plans of how to minimize the DESIRE for abortions by proving pregnant women, children and families with real choices and real support does nothing to draw voters. I am repelled by it. I am repelled when I hear Republican politicians and voters saying things like, "If she (and it is always “she”) could not afford a baby, she should not have gotten pregnant) or “Welfare makes people dependent” or “We need to get rid of the Affordable Care Act,” etc. etc. I have NEVER heard these words uttered by someone who did not have health insurance, who was dealing with an unplanned pregnancy or unplanned job loss or unplanned crisis pregnancy that resulted in months of hospitalization and loss of job and health benefits. I have never heard the Republicans offer solutions or hope for women with babies who are facing very difficult situations. I HAVE heard solutions from Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren. The abortion rate dropped 13% under President Obama. It was at its HIGHEST level ever under President Reagan. President Bush CUT funding for a program that allowed women to view ultrasounds before the abortion, which has been shown to reduce abortion rates by something like 85%. I will not support the Ohio Right to Life movement until it shows REAL concern for women and children and does not simply hypocritically condemn those who have abortions.
