TITUSVILLE, FL -- Priests for Life National Director Frank Pavone released the following statement today about the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives:
“This legislation (CIANA), which was introduced many years ago in Congress and had my strong support back then, came very close to becoming law, except for the unwillingness of Democrats in Congress to do anything that would harm the abortion industry.
“Times have changed. Americans have awakened to the extremism of the abortion industry, and the way it not only kills children in the womb, but abuses children who are already born.
“Moreover, there is a new concern in America today for parental rights.
“And in the era of the Dobbs decision, when states have more authority to restrict and prohibit abortion, this law makes more sense than ever.”
