| ALERT! ALERT: It’s the last day of legislative session and just last night, pro-abortion activist legislators proposed SB 343 — a bill to ENSHRINE ABORTION WITH NO LIMITS, EVEN UP TO 9 MONTHS, in Delaware’s state constitution! |
| Delaware Chancery Court Judge Laster decided the case. Seaford’s Dignity Ordinance would have required all fetal remains within Seaford city limits, regardless of age or stage or development, to be handled in a dignified manner. However, Judge Laster stated that the State of DE only allows a dignified handling of remains IF a death certificate is issued. Currently in Delaware code, a death certificate is issued IF the mother requests it, if the preborn baby is at least 20 weeks old or weighs at least 350 grams. Seaford’s attorney clearly argued how there was no conflict between this code and Seaford’s ordinance, but the judge rejected it – Here is the ruling. |
| Delaware’s lawmakers, from the Attorney General to state and Federal legislators, have made it clear that their goal for Delaware is to be an abortion hotspot, sanctuary, destination (any of these words fit). |
| What started as a small 3 to 2 vote in a small city council meeting turned into a monumental gesture of bravery and commitment for life and human dignity. |
| Health care. Reproductive freedom. These are the euphemisms being shouted everywhere in protest to the Dobbs’ decision. People believe it, heart and soul. Many feel they’ve been robbed of their safety and rights. Euphemisms do that. They provide a hopeful cover for a dark reality — promises that have nothing but rot inside. |
| In 2017, abortion was legalized up to the point of “viability” – an arbitrary standard left to the abortionist to decide. In 2021, criminal penalties were removed in cases where mothers die at the hands of abortionists during the abortion procedure. This year, HB 320 passed allowing APRNs and physician assistants to prescribe dangerous, DIY abortion pills, drugs that women can take without medical oversight. Just yesterday, HB 455 passed and awaits the Governor’s signature; it makes Delaware an abortion hotspot by encouraging women from pro-life states to kill their babies in Delaware. |
Keep in mind that with TODAY being the last day of legislative session, anything can happen, and quickly.
JUST LAST NIGHT, THE DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE INTRODUCED A BILL TO AMEND DELAWARE’S STATE CONSTITUTION TO ENSHRINE ABORTION UP TO 9 MONTHS.
Keep watching for email and text alerts about this.
Because 2/3 majority is needed in both chambers to pass it, we are expecting and counting on the Republicans in Delaware’s House to stop it.
