What Every American Needs to Know
Few people know about widespread unwanted, coerced or even forced abortions in America.
Few fully understand its heartbreaking, even deadly, aftermath for teens and women of all ages — especially when the abortion was unwanted, coerced or forced ... or if family, friends and even experts dismiss widespread coercion, unwanted abortions, injury and heartbreak ... or if they fail even to acknowledge those hurt or killed by pregnancy- and abortion-related violence or to acknowledge families who have lost a loved one in the aftermath of abortion.
For decades, many women and couples seeking facts and assistance were denied help when they needed it most, pressured from all sides, or given false or misleading information from trusted health care providers, experts, parents and even pastors.
Some were told there was no available help. Others were deceived about fetal development and kept in the dark about alternatives, even though studies indicate the majority felt pressured by others or rushed and uncertain. Few were screened for unwanted, coerced or forced abortion. Now, they’re left to absorb the significant, heartbreaking and sometimes deadly aftereffects alone.
Why are they calling abortion The UnChoice?

-
Risk of death for women is 62% higher after abortion.

Please support candidates who advocate for authentic women’s rights, including freedom from coerced, unwanted, deceptively informed, traumatic, injurious and/or forced abortions; and the right to expert acknowledgment of and healing from post-abortion heartbreak and trauma.
