Students for Life of America reports<\/a> that the taxpayer-funded University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus may be committing late-term abortions. According to Kristina Tocce, former faculty at the school of medicine, doctors commit abortions at \u201cadvanced gestation\u201d in the University of Colorado-Health University hospital. There are no restrictions<\/a> on abortion in Colorado.<\/p>\n

Coffman also inquired about abortions based on a diagnosis of Down syndrome<\/a>, to which Tocce replied that she is “comfortable with providing abortion services” and she doesn’t personally make the patient share the reason she is having an abortion.<\/p>\n
