Jewish women’s group takes the lead in pushing US Gov to pass national bill protecting abortion on demand



National Council of Jewish Women spearheads letter from 50 faith-based organizations calling on Congress to safeguard child-murder

ed note--jes' a lil' reminder that the 'Jewish problem' is something that far surpasses merely the issue of 'Palestine', and that just as much as 'the Zionists' are dedicated to killing 'Ishmael' and all his offspring in the Middle East, likewise they are equally dedicated to killing any and all innocent life on earth.

More than 50 faith-based organizations published a letter spearheaded by the National Council of Jewish Women calling on Congress to pass a bill that would protect access to abortion care

Twenty Jewish organizations were among the 53 groups that signed the letter in support of the Women’s Health Protection Act.

The measure would provide a safeguard against bans and medically unnecessary restrictions specifically tied to abortion. It has at least 200 co-sponsors in the US House of Representatives and 42 in the Senate.

“We affirm our nation’s founding principle of religious liberty, which is integrally bound to reproductive freedom. Religious liberty includes the right to follow one’s own faith or moral code in making critical, personal reproductive health decisions, without political interference,” the letter says.

“While we respect the right of every individual, including our lawmakers, to hold their own personal and religious beliefs, our country’s Constitution demands that no one impose a single religious viewpoint on all through civil law or regulation. The Women’s Health Protection Act is essential legislation that embodies these shared ideals.”
