Lila Rose, founder of Live Action, has voiced strong concerns about Kamala Harris’ pro-abortion stance and its potential impact on human rights and freedom of speech. Rose argues that Harris’ unwavering support for abortion on demand, a stance she has held for decades, would have disastrous consequences for the most vulnerable members of society. She criticizes Harris’ use of euphemisms like “reproductive freedom” and her reliance on the “bodily autonomy” argument, which she believes mask a more extreme agenda.
Rose emphasizes the scientific consensus that life begins at fertilization, highlighting the unique and individual nature of a developing human being from that point onwards. She believes that the protection of life is the most fundamental human right and condemns Harris’ disregard for this principle. Rose further criticizes Harris’ close ties with the abortion industry, which she believes profits from the termination of pregnancies.
Beyond her pro-abortion stance, Rose also expresses alarm over Harris’ record of persecuting individuals who engage in pro-life activism. She cites examples of Harris using her position as California’s attorney general to prosecute journalists who exposed alleged federal crimes, even though they were acting within the bounds of their First Amendment rights. This action, Rose argues, demonstrates a pattern of silencing dissenting voices and prioritizing political expediency over upholding fundamental freedoms.
Rose also points to Harris’ support for policies that undermine the mission of pregnancy resource centers. These centers, she explains, provide crucial support to pregnant women, offering medical care, material assistance, and resources to help them navigate the challenges of motherhood. However, Harris has supported legislation that forces these centers to promote abortion, even if it contradicts their religious beliefs, highlighting her commitment to promoting abortion over supporting women and families.
Rose concludes her critique by emphasizing the dangers of a Harris presidency for the cause of human life and fundamental rights. She believes that Harris’ past actions as attorney general, her unwavering support for abortion on demand, and her hostility towards pro-life activists demonstrate a dangerous disregard for the most vulnerable members of society and a willingness to curtail fundamental freedoms. She urges Americans to consider the potential consequences of a Harris presidency and to stand up for the right to life and freedom of speech.
