Missouri Gov. Mike Parson has added his name to the growing list of GOP elected officials asking the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion. Parson and 11 other Republican governors submitted an amicus brief on Thursday in a Mississippi case weighing whether state laws that ban abortions before fetal viability are constitutional." https://www.yahoo.com/news/missouri-gov-parson-signs-convince-222024936.html;

Quote:" WASHINGTON (BP)—The Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission urged U.S. Senate leaders Friday to reinstate long-standing, pro-life policies removed from spending bills by the House of Representatives"
The request from the ERLC came after the Democratic-controlled House approved appropriations bills July 28 and 29 that eliminated the Hyde Amendment and other measures that either prohibit federal funding of abortion or protect the conscience rights of pro-life, health-care workers and institutions. The spending bills without the pro-life “riders,” as they are known, are expected to face a challenge in the Senate, which is divided evenly between the two political parties....Messengers to the 2021 SBC Annual Meeting in June approved a resolution that denounced any attempt to rescind the Hyde Amendment and urged the retention of all pro-life “riders,” ... In the letter, the ERLC is “calling upon Senate leadership and pro-life senators to stand strong and ensure preborn lives will not be in jeopardy and consciences will not be compromised,” she said. “The message is simple: respect precedent, restore Hyde.”
The letter was sent to [pro-abort] Majority Leader Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.;[ prolife] Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.; [pro-abort] Appropriations Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.; and Richard Shelby, R-Ala., the ranking member of the committee.
The ERLC, which has worked for a comprehensive ban on federal funding of abortion, included the protection of pro-life “riders” in spending legislation as one of its priorities in its 2021 Public Policy Agenda. In May, it joined in a letter signed by more than 60 other pro-life advocates that asked Senate and House leaders to maintain the bans.
The Hyde Amendment and similar bans in federal programs must be approved each year as “riders” to spending bills. Hyde includes exceptions for a threat to the mother’s life, rape and incest."

[Catholic Archbishop Salvatore ...]"Cordileone also said being anti-abortion is a "universal moral good — that innocent life should be protected. All religions embrace that. All people of sound mind and good reason embrace this principle."... "Let me repeat," Cordileone writes, "no one can claim to be a devout Catholic and condone the killing of innocent human life, let alone have the government pay for it. The right to life is a fundamental – the most fundamental – human right, and Catholics do not oppose fundamental human rights."
