Democrats in control of the U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday refused<\/a> to hear a resolution that would have condemned the violence that has been carried out by pro-abortion terrorists against churches and pro-life pregnancy centers over the last few months. Since the draft decision of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization<\/em> was leaked<\/a> in early May, countless pregnancy centers, pro-life organizations, and churches across the country have been firebombed, burned, and graffitied.<\/p>\n

Pro-abortion House members have now shown they have little interest in stopping, preventing, or even condemning<\/em> such serious acts of violence.<\/p>\n

House Resolution 1233<\/a>, “Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives condemning the recent attacks on pro-life facilities, groups, and churches,” was introduced on Tuesday by Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.). The resolution noted that “since the May 2, 2022 leak of the Supreme Court’s draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, individuals professing anti-life views have targeted, destroyed, or vandalized numerous pro-life facilities, groups, and even churches to further their radical cause.” The resolution lists some of the attacks including the June 7 firebombing of CompassCare pro-life pregnancy center in Amherst, New York, the arson of Life Choices Free Pregnancy Services in Longmont, California, on June 25, and the three churches that were burned in Bethesda, Maryland, on July 8 and 9.<\/p>\n
