Pro-life ‘more than just words'

Pro-life ‘more than just words’: Jindal signs abortion alternatives law | LifeSiteNews.com: Louisiana’s pro-life governor Bobby Jindal said the new abortion alternatives bill he signed into law Wednesday is proof that “creating a culture of life is more than just words.” He signed HB 636, known as the Signs of Hope Act, at the First Baptist Church.

The bill requires signs posted in abortion clinics that inform women they have the right not to be coerced into having an abortion, that the father must pay child support, that agencies are available to help them during and after pregnancy, and that parents seeking to adopt may be able to defray some of the costs of pregnancy. It also requires abortion providers to inform women about alternatives to abortion and give them a link to the state’s Department of Health and Hospitals website with more information.
