“Anti-Life Forces Are At It Again”(Illinois Family Spotlight #034)

On this edition of Illinois Family Spotlight Monte Larrick interviews Eric Scheidler, the Executive Director of the Pro-Life Action League. Eric provides assistance to local pro-life leaders throughout the country in organizing public pro-life witness, earning media coverage, working with police, and confronting abortion providers. Monte and Eric discuss 2 pieces of legislation in Springfield as well as a few other pro-life issues.

HB 3735 says counselors who are convicted of “intimidation” against pregnant mothers and staff members entering the abortion clinic, will be subject to longer prison stays and/or fines. HB 3735 adds acts of intimidation and violence in the vicinity of abortion clinics to the list of aggravating factors in the criminal code. Read more here.

HB 40 is sponsored by Rep. Sara Feigenholtz (D-Chicago) — Reinstates taxpayer-funded abortions for Medicaid recipients and adds abortion coverage in state employees’ insurance plans. Contact your state representative here.
