Citing ‘my Church,’ President Biden criticizes proposed 15-week abortion ban

CWN Editor's Note: Stating that “my Church doesn’t even make that argument now,” President Biden blasted Sen. Lindsey Graham’s proposal for a federal ban on abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy.

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops has welcomed Sen. Graham’s bill as an incremental step toward legislation that protects every human life. “Although we will never cease working for laws that protect human life from its beginning and supporting mothers in need, we think that this proposed legislation is a place to begin uniting Americans regardless of their views on abortion,” said Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the bishops’ Committee on Pro-Life Activities.

    For as long as "conservatives" allow the pro-aborts to define the language and set the agenda on who lives and who dies, we have already lost. Education is a wonderful thing. Destructive propaganda and misdirection are not. I've noticed recently that some of the pro-aborts are using terminology that I have been employing for the last two and a half decades: "medical procedure". However, they are using the term deceptively. They call abortion a medical procedure. It is better called a homicide.
