Picture above of the Roe v Wade Memorial at Clark County Courthouse January 2020
On June 24, 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade and returned the regulation of abortion to the states (as it was before 1973). See "After Roe" for today's decision.
Today as well as yesterday and tomorrow our CCRTL educational message remains the same:
Pregnant? You are not alone. Another heart is beating close to your heart (watch beautiful 6 minute video HERE) and there are many hearts in the community ready and willing to provide support during and after pregnancy so that you and your baby can live and thrive. See HERE.
Many states have taken this opportunity to pass laws restricting abortion...and a few even banning abortion except to save the mother's life. Washington in 1991 removed legal protection from the newly conceived human individual throughout the nine months of pregnancy. That is the current law.
