Senate Kills Bill Extolling "Crucial Services" of Big Abortion
Posted by Dave Blount at June 24, 2009 8:45 AM
Even this Senate gets some things right: it has shot down an attempt to exploit Tiller the Baby Killer's death in a resolution praising the infanticide industry.
The resolution, sponsored by Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Barbara Boxer (D-CA), and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), decried violence against "providers of health care services to women" and asserted, "there is a history of violence against providers of reproductive health care, as health care employees have suffered threats and hostility in order to provide crucial services to patients."
The resolution failed to gather adequate support after Shaheen refused requests by some of her colleagues to strike the language celebrating the abortion industry. Shaheen expressed frustration at the resolution's demise.
Maybe Shaheen can vent some of her frustration by funneling still more of our money into the deep pockets of Planned Parenthood.
Senator Jeanne Shaheen holds forth.
