The Impact Of FOCA

Hear Indiana Right To Life Radio Spot about the impact of FOCA

What is the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA)?
A priority of Obama and the Democratic congressional leadership and their pro-abortion allies is the passage of a devastating piece of legislation…the so-called Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA).

What would FOCA do?
FOCA would eliminate all of the federal and state laws passed in the past 35 years that restrict abortion and protect women and unborn babies…laws that the majority of Indiana residents support. If FOCA becomes law…

• You, as a taxpayer, forced to pay for abortions
• Partial-birth abortion legal again
• Secret abortions for our minor daughters with no parental involvement
• No required information or waiting periods for women seeking abortions
• Medical professionals and facilities forced to perform abortions

In addition, PPFA explains, “Parental consent or notification statutes have been used as a tool to deny access to abortion services for minors. When such laws deny or interfere with the ability of minors to access abortion services, they would violate FOCA.”

All the laws that have been saving human lives since 1973 would be wiped out by FOCA with no hope of passing future protective laws. And the number of abortions will skyrocket!
