5 Pro-Lifers in Washington, D.C. Found Guilty of Violating FACE Act | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

5 pro-lifers in Washington DC have been found guilty of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE). If convicted, they face up to 11 years in prison and a fine of up to $350,000. The pro-lifers are part of the group "Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising". The charges stem from an incident in October 2020 in which the pro-lifers blocked women from accessing an abortion business in the Foggy Bottom section of the nation's capital. The group plans to file an appeal. Senior Reporter for the Daily Signal, Mary Margaret Olohan, joins to talk more about the incident that took place back in October 2020 and where the protest happened. She explains how many pro-lifers have been charged for violating the FACE Act recently. On another note, there is also a major case regarding the transgender movement in schools. On Monday, the attorney general in California filed a lawsuit against a local school district's policy, requiring teachers to notify parents if their children identify as transgender. The teachers must also notify parents if the child uses a name or pronoun different from what is on their birth certificate. The attorney general says the measure infringes on LGTBQ students' civil rights. Margaret Olohan tells us more about this and how the school district is responding. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
