Pro-Life Group Keeps Pressure On Former Gov.’s Bill

The New Yorkers For Parental Rights is stepping up their attacks on former Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s plan to adopt the Reproductive Health & Privacy Protection Act.
The bill would update New York’s outdated abortion laws and put on the books that it’s legal for late-term abortions when a women’s health is in jeopardy.
The bill had an unlikely chance of passage even with Spitzer, but the group is still lobbying lawmakers against it, taking out billboard space in Albany and running ads on its website.

Jay Gallagher has covered Albany for Gannett News Service since 1984 and has been Albany Bureau chief since 1989. He`s a native of the Boston area and likes to point out that in this millennium, the score is Red Sox 1 championship, the Yankees 0. 
Cara Matthews has been a statehouse correspondent in the Albany Bureau since August 2005. Prior to that, she covered Putnam County government and politics at The Journal News for nearly five years. Before that, she worked at newspapers in Connecticut and covered the state Legislature for one of them. 
Let’s thank New Yorkers For Parental Rights for stepping up their protection for women and their children by opposing an awful goal left behind by Spitzer and sponsored by Andrea Stewart Cousins : the Reproductive Health & Privacy Protection Act. What a strong commercial. Good work!
Opponents of this radical proposed RHAPP legislation are united. And united during an election year!
RHAPP provides no support for a woman facing a crisis pregnancy to make a loving choice. The only “choice†allowed under this bill is the choice that benefits the abortion industry.
Let’s salute New Yorkers for Parental Rights and Advocates for Life for their energy and ads and billboards because they provide a reminder for us that all human life is precious.
