The Real “War on Women” – Killing Baby Girls Just Because They Are Girls

Barack Obama is losing votes among women. So his campaign concocted a claim that his opponents are conducting a “war on women.”

The Obama campaign is known for this kind of demagoguery. A policy disagreement becomes a “war.” Exaggeration fades into lies.

So what would constitute a “war”? Killing people, to start with. Ironic, then, that the Obama Administration strongly supports a policy – abortion – that does just that. And in some places, it’s baby girls who are being targeted by abortion, because some people prefer to have a baby boy.

It’s called sex-selection abortion. A test is done to determine the sex of an unborn child. Often, if the test shows the baby is a girl, she is killed.

And it’s happening right here in the United States. An Austin, Texas Planned Parenthood employee was recently caught on tape counseling a woman how to get a sex-selection abortion. These kinds of abortions are usually done in secret because they’re so disturbing to the public, but they are occurring.

We can stop this war on baby girls by enacting legislation to ban sex-selection abortions in the United States. A solid majority of the U.S. House of Representatives just voted in favor of a bill (H.R. 3541) to ban the killing of an unborn baby because of gender.

Yesterday the White House announced that the Obama Administration opposes the bill! Is there any form of abortion Obama doesn’t support?

The National Right to Life Victory Fund is dedicated to defeating Barack Obama and pro-abortion members of the U.S. Senate and House who are blocking life-saving legislation like the ban on sex-selection abortions and other compassionate pro-life bills. Your financial support of the NRL Victory Fund will hasten the day when children will no longer be targeted for death because of their gender.

Unborn children deserve so much more than the violence of abortion. We work for the day when every unborn girl and boy can enjoy their first months of life in peace and protection of the law.
