The 'pro-choice' governor only supports the 'deadly choice that ends a human life,' one Republican said.
LANSING, Michigan (LifeSiteNews) – Michigan Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer issued several line-item vetoes Thursday for the state’s $22.2 billion education budget, including cutting provisions that would have supported pregnancy support options except abortion and stem-cell research excluding the use of human embryos.
The Detroit News reported that the budget contained $1 million for “pregnant and parenting student services” at community college and university campuses, with language supporting recommendations for care, delivery, foster care, adoption or family planning but forbidding abortion referrals, as well as $5 million for “ethical stem cell/fetal tissue research,” excluding “any research on aborted fetal tissue.”
In her veto message, Whitmer claimed that the provisions “would create a gag rule preventing reproductive health-service providers from even mentioning abortion and otherwise make it harder for women to get the health care they need,” and more generally “harm women’s health care.”
Whitmer further claimed that the items were unconstitutional on the grounds that the Michigan Constitution gives institutions of higher education “general supervision of its institution and the control and direction of all expenditures from the institution’s funds,” yet the language at issue “deprives an institution of higher education with the supervisory control and budgetary independence provided by those sections.”

As with most liberals, her passion is about the issue and not people. Nothing new here.
Insufferable witch.
The scary thing about the people who vote for these monsters is when you try to explain to them that abortion is killing an innocent baby and by voting for people like this you are facilitating their evil, a few may offer some weak rationale, but mostly it's like they don't even hear you. They ignore what you say or change the subject. It's like Satan has placed wax in their ears.
The pro death party, run by white women, at it again.
Satan is protecting Whitmer and the other Dems in office in Michigan. His power is immense here in this state as shown by the evil scum. Whitmer and the others will face their justice in the next life.
When it goes down, her drive between the governor’s mansion and the state capital is going to seem like an eternity.
I wouldn’t want to be one of her body guards.
Women who want to birth a child will Die!
RE: trying to reason with the pro-abortion crowd....
One explanation is many people generally think today that they as individuals need total freedom and anything that interferes with that is wrong. But that puts them over God because to be under God is annoyingly unfree to their selfish way of thinking.
TV ads in Michigan say “she stands up for a woman’s right to choose” (for Haley Stevens—D for Congress). Obviously it is to choose to kill a preborn baby if the woman wants that. So an opponent would be restrictive of her “rights.”
