Federal court of appeals strikes down a Baltimore law requiring crisis pregnancy centers to promote abortion

Here is a link to a LifeNews story about a recent federal court of appeals decision striking down a Baltimore City ordinance requiring crisis pregnancy centers to promote abortion. A  case from the Ninth Circuit upheld a similar California statute and that case is now before the US Supreme Court.

Here is a comment from Americans United for Life (AUL) praising the decision: “The ordinance in the Baltimore case is a blatant attempt to undermine the life-affirming work of pregnancy care centers by forcing the posting of messages about abortions in their facilities. Clearly, the abortion industry feels threatened by the ability of these dedicated pregnancy care centers to provide women with alternatives to abortion, and is trying to protect their profits by forcing pro-life pregnancy centers to promote abortion. AUL is extremely pleased that the Fourth Circuit unanimously recognized the free speech rights of these commendable pro-life centers, and we look forward to continuing to be active in court cases defending their ability to serve women and their children with love and respect.”
