To accomplish this goal, he brought together over 40 pro-abortion organizations and politicians to develop a list of must-haves to achieve abortion nirvana.<\/p>\n<p>They produced a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthoodaction.org\/uploads\/filer_public\/d8\/e1\/d8e17825-72e0-4f6f-9c57-7549bb54261e\/ca_fab_council_report_.pdf\">document<\/a> called <em>California Future of Abortion Council, Recommendations to Protect, Strengthen, and Expand Abortion Care in California<\/em>. They have seven stated goals with 45 policy recommendations to make them reality. Here are the highlights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>One<\/strong>: First on the list is funding. Not content with having California taxpayers paying for abortions, the Future of Abortion Council (FAC) also wants them to foot the bill for related expenses. These include travel, hotel, meals, childcare, lost wages, and sick time.<\/p>\n<p>The plan goes a step further by including nonresidents of California. Thus, ensuring women who live in nearby states that prohibit abortion have an unencumbered alternative to end the lives of their babies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Two<\/strong>: Streamline the Medi-Cal process for state-funded abortions. Medi-Cal accounts for nearly half of all abortions committed in the state. FAC wants to make sure there are no gaps or delays in coverage, or financial shortfalls in reimbursement for abortionists, their staff, and the abortion facilities. FAC also advocates updating and increasing the reimbursement rates for those involved in providing abortion services \u2013 a state funded raise for the abortion industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Three<\/strong>: A financial and legal leg up for the abortion industry. FAC would:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reward abortionists by repaying their college loans.<\/li>\n<li>Create a liability insurance fund for abortionists, residents, nurse practitioners, and nurse midwives \u2013 those legally allowed to commit abortions in California.<\/li>\n<li>Supplemental liability insurance for abortion facilities and community health centers that dispense chemical abortion pills.<\/li>\n<li>Force primary care and family medicine education programs to include abortion training.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Four<\/strong>: Eliminate bothersome administrative and institutional guidelines designed to protect women.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Allow abortionists to jettison safety guidelines such as ultrasounds, testing or follow-up visits for chemical abortions without reducing the rate of their reimbursement.<\/li>\n<li>Eliminate Medi-Cal policies that restrict reimbursement for late-term abortions.<\/li>\n<li>Abolish existing restrictions on late-term abortions throughout the state.<\/li>\n<li>Force religiously affiliated hospitals to commit abortions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>READ:\u00a0<em><a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/california-scholarships-abortionists-medical\/\">California to offer incentives for medical students to become abortionists<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Five<\/strong>: Insulate abortionists from civil and criminal liability, including disciplinary action. Proposed changes would also protect women and accomplices suspected of self-induced or criminal abortions and prevent access to medical records when investigating such incidents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Six<\/strong>: Absolute control of the abortion narrative:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Censor information <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cwlc.org\/report-shows-anti-abortion-cpcs-receive-federal-and-state-funding-to-mislead-clients-provide-few-services\/\">deemed<\/a> \u201charmful and misleading\u201d from pro-life pregnancy help centers.<\/li>\n<li>Fund and disseminate California\u2019s \u201ccomprehensive sexual health education mandate\u201d (CSE) advocating abortion and other controversial schemes.<\/li>\n<li>Force schools to provide CSE materials and monitor school districts for compliance.<\/li>\n<li>Fund organizations that provide approved pro-abortion information.<\/li>\n<li>Fund oversight to address so-called \u201cabortion misinformation and disinformation.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Fund the indoctrination of Medi-Cal recipients regarding \u201ctypes of abortion, rights to access and eligibility\/coverage.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Force schools to participate in the California Healthy Kids Survey that includes abortion as one of its key elements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Seven<\/strong>: Collect data and conduct research to weed out any remaining barriers to abortion. The primary \u201cbeneficiaries\u201d would be individuals \u201cwith low incomes, immigrants, and undocumented\u201d populations \u2013 weeding out the undesirables.<\/p>\n<p>These extreme policies protect hack abortionists from civil or criminal penalties, silence the opposition, and fund and expand the abortion industry and those who support it. <strong>Several organizations serving as FAC participants directly <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.plannedparenthoodaction.org\/uploads\/filer_public\/d8\/e1\/d8e17825-72e0-4f6f-9c57-7549bb54261e\/ca_fab_council_report_.pdf\"><strong>benefit<\/strong><\/a><strong> financially from these policy changes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Editor&#8217;s Note: This article was published at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeissues.org\/2022\/01\/achieving-abortion-nirvana\/\">Life Issues Institute<\/a> and is reprinted with permission.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/liveactionnewsonline\/\">\u201cLike\u201d Live Action News on Facebook<\/a>\u00a0for more pro-life news and commentary!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Life Issues Institute)\u00a0Speculation that Roe v Wade may be history this year motivated the governor of one state to go above and beyond in his efforts to make it a \u201csanctuary\u201d for unrestrained abortion.
