The House has passed a bill protecting access to birth control, but it has a rough road ahead in the Senate

Rev. James Harden

JEFFERSON CITY – In the midst of a pro-abortion crimewave that continues following the reversal of Roe vs. Wade by the Supreme Court earlier this summer, the House recently passed a bill titled the Right to Contraception Act. With it, the right for people to attain birth control, using a range of contraceptive methods, is provided. In addition, it will also allow health care providers to offer necessary services in the face of a pregnancy, even with certain abortion rules put in place.

 

This is just the latest act by a number of politicians that appear to be deflecting interest away from a potential abortion industry sex crime cover-up by creating their own news. President Joe Biden recently noted problems with a baby formula crisis. Meanwhile, 16 members of Congress were recently arrested for stopping traffic in front of the U.S. Supreme Court building; and several pro-abortion politicians within the House are pushing forward their own agenda using the platform.

 

This comes on top of the pro-abortion crimewave that continues to spread across the United States, with over 100 attacks on pro-life organizations and abortion centers, including those run by CompassCare. Politicians have made no attempts to protect these centers, despite the attacks made by pro-choice groups and other extremist types.

 

On top of that, pro-abortion politics are continuing the attack outside of Congress. New York Governor Kathy Hochul, for example, signed a bill to investigate pro-life pregnancy centers, calling those who run them “Neanderthals.” (This is just six days after a firebombing took place at a CompassCare location, which is worth nothing.) Senator Elizabeth Warren has also gone on the attack, noting, “We need to shut [pro-life pregnancy centers] down all across the country. pro-abortion legislators in the Senate and House appealed to Google’s CEO in an open letter to rig search engine algorithms, keeping women at risk for abortion from finding pro-life pregnancy centers.”

 

However, according to CompassCare CEO Jim Harden, there is some good news in all this. Despite the fact that the Right to Contraception Act has passed the House, it’ll have a struggle within the Senate itself, especially without the necessary Republican votes needed to pass the bill. That said, it won’t stop pro-abortion politicians from trying again in the future, or continuing their push towards striking back against the Roe vs. Wade reversal. The fight isn’t over yet, not by a longshot.
