[Blood of Tyrants]

My wife is a hospital pharmacist and occassionally is asked to dispense drugs whose sole purpose is to cause a chemically induced abortion in an early pregnancy. Since she is very strongly pro-life, she calls the attending physician each time to be sure that the reason for the abortion is fetal demise (the baby has died in the womb of natural causes) and not an abortion of convenience.

Thankfully, the hospital she works in does not offer abortion on demand. I think that she would quit (with 16 years seniority) before she would help someone kill their unborn child.

Pass this along to her:

Proposed protection of conscience law - US Congress S2008

The proposed amendment is intended to reaffirm the basic principle that no health care provider should be forced to perform or participate in abortions, and clarifies that the term "health care entity" in existing law includes the full range of participants involved in providing health care, such as health care professionals, health plans, hospitals and other health facilities. The bill also strengthens existing law by providing that health care entities should not be forced by government to pay for abortions. The bill passed the House on 25 September, 2002.
