WASHINGTON, March 7, 2023 /Christian
Newswire/ -- U.S. Senator Jim Risch along with Senators Cindy Hyde-Smith
(R-Miss.), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), and
Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) introduced the Pregnancy Center Security Act to enhance
security for pro-life centers and to protect staff and patients from potential
violence and extremism.
The legislation would establish a grant program for pregnancy-help organizations
to implement security upgrades, including the installation of security cameras
and systems. Stanton Public Policy Center/Purple Sash Revolution applauds
Senator Risch for leading the way on protecting life-affirming women's centers
and encourages democrats in Congress and the Biden Administration to support it.
Based in Washington, D.C., Stanton Public Policy Center/Purple Sash Revolution
is a women's advocacy and educational group that works on issues of human rights
and justice which empower and inspire women. It is affiliated with Stanton
Healthcare which has life-affirming women's health clinics in America and
internationally.
Brandi Swindell, Founder and CEO of Stanton Public Policy Center/Purple Sash
Revolution, states:
"Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, pro-life
centers have been subjected to violent physical attacks and some members of
Congress have condemned pregnancy medical clinics and resource centers,
called them 'fake clinics' and are calling for their regulation or closure.
"We are thankful Senator Risch and other members of Congress are leading the
way to ensure life-affirming centers are protected from violence and
extremism. Stanton Public Policy Center/Purple Sash Revolution also calls on
democrats in Congress and President Biden to support this critical piece of
legislation which protects thousands of centers that provide quality medical
care and tangible support to women facing unexpected pregnancies.
"With the future of abortion being such an important conversation taking
place across America, it is critical to know our political leaders will not
tolerate violence and hate directed toward the pro-life and pro-woman
community."
