Fr. Pavone on Florida Clinic Closings: More Evidence That
Abortion Remains the Most Unregulated Industry
Florida authorities have
suspended the operating licenses of two abortion facilities and temporarily shut
down three others following the alleged performances of illegal late term
abortions. These actions come on the heels of two Alabama clinic closings
last week for state regulatory violations and a report this week that a baby may
have been born alive at yet another Florida abortion facility and then killed.
Fr. Frank Pavone, National
Director of Priests for Life, reacted to these developments: “The weak points of
the abortion industry are the clinics and the abortionists. For years, Priests
for Life has been writing and preaching that abuses like those uncovered in
Florida and Alabama are going on routinely nationwide. We urge authorities
in every state to step up their inspections of abortion clinics. I
guarantee that more of the same will be discovered. As far as we are
concerned, they should all be shut down today – for the good of the mothers as
well as the babies.”
Priests for Life is the
nation's largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and
euthanasia. For more information, visit www.priestsforlife.org.
