Social media is abuzz with Americans condemning New York State’s expansive abortion law<\/a> – including celebrities. The new law allows for abortion up until birth (although this was actually legalized by Roe v. Wade<\/em> and its companion decision,\u00a0Doe v. Bolton<\/a><\/em>), allows non-physicians to commit abortions, makes it harder for anyone to be charged with a crime if they kill a preborn child against the mother’s wishes, and removes protections for children who are born alive after abortion. None of this is sitting well with many Americans, including these celebrities.<\/p>\n

Everything Kermit Gosnell was arrested, convicted, and jailed for is now legal in New York – except in New York you don’t even have to be a doctor. Nice work @NYGovCuomo<\/a>. https:\/\/t.co\/LrnoDYVILV<\/a><\/p>\n
