At least two
Democrat lawmakers wore “abortion” pins to display their support for killing
unborn babies during President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on
Tuesday evening.
Ahead of the
speech, U.S. Sen. Ed Markey, D-Massachusetts, and U.S. Rep. Madeleine Dean,
D-Pennsylvania, both posted photos of themselves on social media wearing golden
lapel pins that read “ABORTION” with a stylized O with a heart inside.
“I say the
word, I wear the word,” Dean
wrote on Twitter. “Abortion care is health care. Abortion care saves
lives.”
Markey said
the pins were a gift from Planned Parenthood. The abortion chain spends massive amounts of money to elect pro-abortion Democrats every
year while reporting billion-dollar revenues and aborting more than 383,000 unborn babies annually.
“I’m wearing my abortion pin from [Planned
Parenthood] to tonight’s State of the Union address,” Markey wrote
on Twitter. “Abortion is essential healthcare and we need to codify this
right.”
Last summer,
the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that aborting unborn babies is not a
constitutional right in the Dobbs v. Jackson case. Now, states
may protect unborn babies’ right to life again, and 14 currently are enforcing
laws that prohibit killing unborn babies in abortions.
However,
Democrat leaders want to end these life-saving laws with a bill to
“codify Roe” nationwide — something Biden called for in his speech Tuesday evening.
Nicknamed the Abortion Without Limits Up to Birth Act, the
bill would force states to legalize abortions for basically any reason up to
birth and force taxpayers to pay for them. It also would end parental consent
for minors and jeopardize conscience protections for doctors and nurses who
refuse to abort unborn babies.
Dean and Markey both support the bill, as do almost all Democrats in Congress.
