How will Florida’s six week abortion ban benefit anti-abortion pregnancy help centers and hurt abortion providers?
Florida has nearly 160 “crisis pregnancy centers,” many affiliated with the Catholic Church. The centers, which do not receive significant medical oversight by the state, are enjoying a fresh infusion of taxpayer dollars — as much as $25 million per year among them — courtesy of staunchly anti-abortion lawmakers, who are firmly in control of the Legislature.
While abortion clinics say women deserve a choice, many crisis pregnancy centers believe that women do have a choice: between raising their child or giving him or her up for adoption.
