New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced the second round of money dispensed to the abortion industry through the Abortion Provider Support Fund. In a press release<\/a>, it was declared that $13.4 million is being given to 37 abortion businesses across the state.<\/p>\n

In May, Hochul announced the creation of the fund after a leaked draft opinion from the Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization<\/em> indicated that the Supreme Court would overturn\u00a0Roe v. Wade<\/em>. The goal was not only to ensure that abortion remains legal, easily accessible, and well-funded in New York, but to also attract abortionists to set up shop there. Hochul had also previously<\/a> vowed to make New York a “safe harbor” for abortion in response to the Texas Heartbeat Act.<\/p>\n

URGENT:\u00a0<\/b>For every dollar given, 34 more people can be reached with the truth about abortion. Will you join us in this life-saving work as a monthly donor today?<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

The first round of funding was dispensed in July<\/a>, and abortion businesses were not eligible to receive funding in the second round if they already had been awarded money.<\/p>\n

“New York State is committed to protecting reproductive rights, and as other states wage a war on abortion access we will continue to be a safe harbor,” Hochul said. “To ensure access to reproductive health care, we must provide the resources and support providers need. I will not stand by and allow women to be subjected to government-mandated pregnancies.”<\/p>\n

Hochul’s chosen phrase, “government-mandated pregnancies,” is inaccurate. No government polices “mandate” pregnancy; the majority of pregnancies result from a consensual act which is known to, at times, biologically result in the creation of a new human life. Pro-life laws seek to protect that new human life from being denied his or her natural right to continue to exist without being unjustly killed.<\/p>\n

Despite Hochul’s pro-abortion rhetoric, New York was already extreme on abortion, long before Roe<\/em> was overturned. The state has an abortion access fund<\/a> to help low-income women pay for abortions, as well as a mandate<\/a> requiring that abortion be covered in all insurance plans, even among religious groups. Hochul has also attacked<\/a> pregnancy resource centers while shielding<\/a> abortionists from prosecution in other states. State legislators are also looking to enshrine abortion<\/a> as a “right” in the state constitution. Additionally, state officials have tried to force Google to remove<\/a> pregnancy resource centers from search results and bullied<\/a> small towns into removing any restrictions on abortions from their local laws.<\/p>\n

Hochul doesn’t need to do anything to make New York a safe harbor for abortion. Clearly, it already is.<\/p>\n
