She Must Not Die In Vain




From American United for Life


A frustrated abortion industry fought back in a fury this month, as health and safety standards in secretive, rarely monitored abortion clinics continued to capture the hearts and minds of Americans. In an opinion piece that countered the USA Today editorial board, Americans United for Life President and CEO Dr. Charmaine Yoest tackled head on abortion industry complaints about the need for protective laws, like those going into effect in Texas this month.
Dr. Yoest wrote: “You probably don’t know Karnamaya Mongar’s name. Certainly the abortion industry would rather we forget her. The mother and Bhutan refugee died after visiting Kermit Gosnell’s abortion clinic on November 19, 2009. Karnamaya was a small woman who had survived the brutal conditions of a Nepal refugee camp. But she did not survive the calloused conditions of the 21st century American abortion industry … Gosnell’s peers in the abortion industry knew how appalling his clinic was. The National Abortion Federation had been inside the clinic. Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania admitted they were aware. But they did nothing … Today this same industry that failed to act in Pennsylvania tells us to trust them. They claim that they should be allowed to self-regulate … Health and safety standards close no clinics. Abortionists close clinics when they refuse to fully protect women and refuse to comply with laws that other facilities follow.
Americans United for Life, the nation’s premier pro-life legal team, works through the law and legislative process to one end: Achieving comprehensive legal protection for human life from conception to natural death. The nonprofit, public-interest law and policy organization holds the unique distinction of being the first national pro-life organization in America— incorporated in 1971, before the infamous Roe v. Wade decision.
