					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>One of the most dishonest attacks on the pro-life movement is the charge that pro-life people care only about the baby in utero – not about the mothers or their delivered babies.</p>
<p>A new report, <a href="https://lozierinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Pregnancy-Center-Report-2020_FINAL.pdf">“Pregnancy Centers Stand the Test of Time,”</a> by the <a href="https://lozierinstitute.org/">Charlotte Lozier Institute</a>, the research arm of the <a href="https://www.sba-list.org/">Susan B. Anthony List</a>, puts the lie to that assertion.</p>
<p>In 2019, the latest year tabulated, about 2,700 pro-life pregnancy centers nationally served nearly two million people.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2025/09/confronting-the-lie-that-pro-lifers-dont-care-once-a-child-is-born/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>There is a criminal charge called “aiding and abetting.”</p>
<p>It’s about being an accomplice in committing a crime without being the actual perpetrator.</p>
<p>Think of a getaway car driver after a convenience store shooting. Or congressional, state and local Democrats.</p>
<p>Many Americans believe that allowing millions of aliens, including criminals, drug dealers, sex traffickers and possible terrorists, to enter the U.S. illegally is an act of treason.</p>
<p>The Biden-Harris administration not only reversed policies that had largely controlled the border under former President <strong>Donald Trump</strong>; they offer incentives to enter the country illegally such as free health care.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/10/democrats-at-war-with-nature-god-and-american-citizens/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Dr. S.M. Davis</em></p>
<p>I agree with the articles I’m reading that we need to boldly defend the Pro-Life position, but I have a suggestion for an entirely new strategy to do so. I think this would not only be a winning strategy, but would also strongly win over the black vote. We need to start saying over and over again:</p>
<blockquote><p><span style="background-color: #ffff99;">&#8220;Yesterday&#8217;s Dems supported slavery and today&#8217;s Dems support abortion.  In both cases they were denying that someone was or is fully human.</span></p></blockquote>&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2023/11/democrats-were-pro-choice-for-slavery-too/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>Written by Robert Knight</em></p>
<p>Some progressives are grousing that <strong>Joe Biden</strong>’s Cabinet choices aren’t sufficiently Marxist. They want <strong>Bernie Sanders</strong> named as Labor secretary, for instance. The <em>Nation</em> magazine is less critical but also wants more lefties.</p>
<p>You just can’t please some people. The fabricated “Office of the President-Elect” has announced what amounts to a reunion of the Obama administration’s radical crew, and then some.</p>
<p>Take <strong>Susan Rice</strong>. After the United Nations ambassador was caught lying about the terrorist attack on the American consulate in Benghazi on Sept.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2020/12/bidens-cabinet-picks-avoid-left-wing-loons-but-show-what-he-means-by-unity/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">I know that abortion apologists have come to believe it is their strongest counterpoint to say, “You are pro-birth, not pro-life,” but it is not.  At all.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The bizarre statement is utterly false, of course, given the overwhelming numbers of Christian and pro-life adoption agencies, care centers, churches, missions, and foster homes that nurture hurting and abandoned children.  But to demonstrate how morally repugnant of an argument this is for the left, suppose for a second that it was a true statement.&#8230; <a href="https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/11/youre-pro-birth-not-pro-life-is-just-a-terrible-argument/" class="read-more">Continue Reading </a></p>]]></description>
