Last week, a federal judge in California dismissed a lawsuit the American Civil Liberties Union had filed in 2016 challenging the governments award of grants to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops to provide services to unaccompanied minor illegal aliens and trafficking victims. In the lawsuit, the ACLU argued the grants violated the Establishment Clause because the Department of Health and Human Services allowed the Catholic organization (and its sub-grantees) to deny girls and women in their care contraceptives and abortion.
The court rejected the ACLUs Establishment Clause claim in a methodical 34-page opinion, explaining that the federal funds were not used to endorse or advance religion. Further, as the San Francisco-based federal judge stressed, the government would transfer minors to other facilities if there were a conflict between the services sought and the religious tenets of the organization running the shelter.
Buried in the middle of the courts analysis was a shocking revelation: Obama administration officials transported pregnant minors in federal custody to New Mexico to obtain abortions in order to circumvent parental consent laws in other states.
An email exchange between two Health and Human Services employees in April 2014 exposed this disturbing fact. In discussing Maria, a pregnant minor held at a temporary shelter, possibly in Texas or Floridathe workers noted that Maria stated she wanted an abortion and did not want her parents to know that she was pregnant. At the time, Marias parents, who were to be her sponsors, were located in Florida. Maria was in the custody of the federal Office of Refugee Resettlement.

He knew nothing about it until he read about it in the papers...
We may assume then that the parents were residents in states that required parental consent, and the government transported the girls out of state also without the parents' consent.
So now we tolerate government kidnapping?
