Students for Life Action (SFLAction) has long discussed the real political endgame for the Democrats when it comes to abortion. All the talk about codifying Roe is a euphemism that intentionally buries what they really want: something far worse than Roe, and certainly more far reaching in its requirements.
The best illustration of this is their signature healthcare policy, the Women’s Health Protection Act, would allow abortions to be conducted up until birth nationwide, without any ability for the states to push back, demand taxpayer funding, and trample on the conscience rights of medical professionals.

When you add that measure to the Democrats repeated opposition to the Born Alive Infants Protection Act, their policy allows even infanticide for those born during botched abortions, which we have also talked about.

But let’s add yet another example to pile of reasons why Democrats fundamentally think Roe is too weak.
According to reporting from The Washington Times, “Rick Weiland, co-founder of Dakotans for Health, the group behind Amendment G, said pro-choice leaders told him at the start of the campaign that the Roe configuration ‘didn’t go far enough.‘” (emphasis added)
“We had conversations with them,” he told The Washington Times. “They told us they didn’t think it went far enough. They wanted something more like the Michigan bill.”
Michigan’s Proposal 3, which passed in 2022 with 57% of the vote, added “reproductive rights” to the state constitution, which includes “prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, sterilization, abortion, miscarriage management and infertility.”
Why does Roe not go far enough? It was “limited” to 24 weeks, about five and a half months, at least on paper, and it was never extreme enough in its approach to late-term abortion or even abortion survivors.
Yet, the deeper purpose is likely is control and compliance – medical tyranny and the removal of conscience rights, as well as stripping choice, ironically, from medical professionals who will have a moral objection.
And if anyone thinks that it’s hyperbole or exaggeration to believe a crackdown on pro-life organizations, activists or Catholic hospitals is coming, they would be wrong. The Biden-Harris administrations’ persecution and prosecution of Catholics and Christians have been well documented by SFLAction:
- Students for Life of America (SFLA) and other pro-life groups placed on a terrorist watch list – twice.
- SFLA students charged for sidewalk chalk, but thankfully acquitted.
- SFLA staff and students endured everything from physical attacks and arson to bomb threats and intimidation, making security issues a vital concern and expense for pro-life events.
- Catholic Groups targeted by the FBI – with no accountability for it.
- Members of Janes Revenge threatening to kill pro-life Americans.
- A sitting U.S. Senator allegedly called for violence against the pro-life movement.
- More than 40 attacks against pro-life buildings, churches and organization locations.
In short, Catholic, Christian and other religious medical professionals could have a metaphorical gun to their heads, courtesy of a future Harris-Walz administration: comply, resign, or face jail time.
But only if we lose in November. Go vote.
