Let's fix another 'hopeless' cause

Posted November 27, 2021 12:00 am

Over the past 60 years of my life, I've seen many "hopeless" causes become fixed.

We have:

• Prevented polio

• Found a treatment for HIV

• Reduced serious injuries from auto accidents with seat belts

• Decreased secondhand smoke by restricting smoking in public places. I for one never thought they would be able to outlaw smoking in bars.

• Begun teaching diversity in our workplaces

So, now I believe we can prevent the need or desire for most abortions. I belong to a national organization called "Feminists for Life." This organization recognizes that our society has failed to meet the needs of women. They are committed to systematically eliminating the root causes that drive women to abortion - primarily resources and support - through holistic, woman-centered solutions.

Women deserve better than abortion.
