Ariz. abortion rate drops 7.4 percent
Friday, Aug 2, 2013
The following quote may be attributed to Alliance Defending Freedom Senior Counsel Steven H. Aden regarding a new Arizona Department of Health Services report that shows a 7.4 percent decrease in the number of abortions performed in the state in 2012 compared to 2011:
“Every innocent life deserves to be protected, and Arizona lawmakers should be commended for implementing laws that save innocent lives. We have been honored to work together with the Center for Arizona Policy in defending those laws in court when they have been attacked by Planned Parenthood and other groups. The profit of abortionists should not come before common-sense rules that save innocent lives while protecting the health of women and providing them with the information they need to make informed choices.”
Alliance Defending Freedom is an alliance-building, non-profit legal organization that advocates for the right of people to freely live out their faith.
