The fallout from the stunning prolife victory in Texas this week is already having incredible repercussions, with a number of other states promising to follow suit.
The most prominent amongst those is Florida, the third most populous state in the United States of America, with Texas the second. If successful, prolife lawmakers would provide protection for the unborn in a combined population of 50 million, with many more states waiting in the wings.
Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis has said that ‘What they did in Texas was interesting and I haven’t really been able to look enough into it, I am going to look more significantly at it.”
Meanwhile, Senate President Wilton Simpson stated that Florida Republicans were already working on such an amendment. He stated:
Abortion kills children and forever changes the life of the mother, the father, and the entire extended family.
As an adoptive child myself, it’s important to me that we do everything we can to promote adoption and prevent abortion; therefore, I think it’s worthwhile to take a look at the Texas law and see if there is more we can do here in Florida.
House Speaker Chris Sprowls added:
In Florida, we agree that killing an innocent human being with a beating heart is wrong. It is why we have worked every session to strengthen protections for unborn babies, including those for unborn children with disabilities last session, and it is why I am confident that those who share this moral view in the Florida House will continue the fight .
The pro abortion community in the United States are livid over these restrictions, but they must also know that they are completely powerless, as Ireland’s prolifers were in 2018 while the issue went the other way.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden’s press secretary Jen Psaki was heavily criticised yesterday when she appeared to breakout in a semi voluntary condescending contortion at the mention of Catholicism in relation to abortion.
Today, President Joe Biden referred to the Texas Law as ‘pernicious' and ‘un American’. He said ‘I respect those who believe that life begins at conception…I don’t believe it but I respect it’.
Without the Supreme Court to count on, it is extremely unlikely that the lucrative abortion industry will have any ability to turn this situation around. The concern of course is that those who have made vast amounts of money from these companies will now spread their poison around the world with increased velocity after losing such an important customer base.
