Recently, the California Assembly Health Committee chose to reject a proposed bill that would have prohibited abortion based on a baby’s gender.
This should have been a no-brainer….of course we should not allow abortions based on gender selection. However, California has failed to support that logic, and the Assembly voted right down party lines, 6-13 against the bill.
Assemblywoman Shannon Grove, who brought the bill to the legislature, said, “I know that the political stance is normally pro-choice and under a woman’s right to choose but someplace there has to be a line where it’s not okay. And I submit to you today that it is not okay to have an abortion just because it is a little girl…”
We are saddened by this decision, and we ask for your prayers for the unborn who cannot speak up for themselves.
