Elizabeth Warren Escalates Her War on Pregnancy Resource Centers

The Massachusetts Democrat says pro-life charities could be shut down under her bill if they ‘mimic Planned Parenthood’s colors’ and engage in other acts of supposed ‘disinformation.’

This week, Massachusetts Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren escalated her war on crisis pregnancy centers. These pro-life charities not only help women in poverty choose life instead of abortion, but they also help women after babies are born — providing clothing, diapers, housing assistance, and more. Warren wants to “shut them down all around the country” on the grounds that they purportedly spread “disinformation” about abortion.

“In Massachusetts right now, those crisis pregnancy centers that are there to fool people who are looking for pregnancy termination help outnumber true abortion clinics by three to one,” Warren told an NBC affiliate in Boston. “We need to shut them down here in Massachusetts and we need to shut them down all around the country.”
