It's a step in the right direction and long over due.
My state has been funding abortions through Medicaid since 1981.
I'm glad to see a city try to catch up with the 17 of us states that already pay for abortions for low income women.
This is for any woman who needs one. The woman doesn't have to live in NYC. All she has to do is be in the city to get the abortion.
New York could become first city to provide abortion funding
Why can't anti-life people like yourself just pony up to pay the Abortionists?
Why do you feel it necessary to impose this on your fellow citizens who actually cherish the gift of life itself?
I do.
I voted in 1981 to allow my state tax dollars to pay for abortions. The initiative passed with a good margin. I voted in the majority.
I've been paying for abortions since 1981 with my state tax dollars.
I've been sending money to Planned Parenthood's fund that pays for abortions for low income women in other states since the 1990s.
I've been sending money to another private organization that all they do is fund abortions and pays for travel and lodging for abortions since the early 2000s.
So when have you helped a single mom? What have you done to back your words with action? Or are you all words and zero action? How many unwanted kids have you adopted? How many foster children have you opened your home to?
Why not instead donate to schools to teach about safe sex?
