3) "But supporters of the measure in the Republican-led Legislature have said the intent is to "protect the life of the unborn."
"I think this is one of the core functions of government," Sen. Nathan Dahm, a Republican from Broken Arrow who sponsored the bill in Senate, said when it passed last month. "All people have the inherent right to life. Under the measure, Oklahoma medical licensure officials would be prohibited from renewing or granting a license to any physician who performs an abortion, except when the procedure is necessary to protect the life of the mother. There are no exceptions for abortions performed in cases of rape or incest. The measure lumps performing abortions in with aiding or abetting a criminal operation, the habitual use of habit-forming drugs, conviction of a felony and other acts that can also lead to revocations of a physician's license." Also, includes:- " prohibiting abortions due to a diagnosis of Down syndrome or a genetic abnormality;.. mandating Oklahoma's public schools to teach that life begins at conception"

13) "We are modern day abolitionists fighting the greatest civil rights issue of today... There are two lives involved, that of the mother and that of her baby. Operating under the assumption that the fetus is alive (and one cannot logically assign personhood at any stage of development other than at conception), it is granted certain unalienable rights- the most important being the right to life."; http://www.easternprogress.com/2016/04/18/pro-life-and-feminism-can-co-exist/

17) Poland seeking ban on all abortions: ""In this jubilee year of Poland's baptism, we urge all people of goodwill, believers and nonbelievers, to take action to ensure full legal protection of unborn lives," the bishops said, linking the issue to the anniversary.
The climate seems favorable for tightening Poland's anti-abortion law, already one of Europe's strictest, because power is currently held by a conservative government whose members stress they are Catholics and follow the bishops' teaching. Some 90 percent of Poles declare themselves as Catholics."http://www.fairfieldcitizenonline.com/news/article/Poland-s-abortion-debate-risks-shaking-7245372.php
18) "[Dr Rachel] Carling-Jenkins’s private member’s Bill [of Melbourne, Australia] , which aims to restrict abortions to the first 24 weeks of pregnancy.
After that point, women would not be able to get abortions but would get “holistic care” such as counselling and support services, and if a baby had to be born in an emergency, doctors would have to try to keep the child alive. Doctors who performed abortions post-24 weeks would face up to five years in jail, but pregnant women would not be prosecuted." http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/opinion/muddy-waters-swirling-around-abortion-bill/news-story/45375e965962ef18897c14f3f76fa43a

This section is the anti-life news that prolife activists must be aware of to push back against:
1) FDA rules made real medical doctors not necessary for prescribing drugs that kill tiny defenseless human beings in womb: "The updated FDA regimen now reflects standard medical practice, which requires mifepristone to be administered by a healthcare provider—not necessarily a doctor—and allows misoprostol to be taken by the patient at home. About seven to fourteen days after taking mifepristone, a follow-up with a healthcare provider is indicated. This is key for women who receive services in clinics that employ nurse practitioners or who receive services from a midwife."https://www.latina.com/lifestyle/our-issues/fda-medication-abortion-easier
2) " A Wyoming school has canceled a planned appearance by a Christian abstinence advocate."http://trib.com/news/state-and-regional/wyoming-school-cancels-christian-abstinence-advocate/article_e932f3cc-1e77-5679-84d6-b4386a91f646.html
