About this sermon
Abortion played a key role in the last election, and is likely to do the same this November. Millions of voters in up to 11 states will decide on abortion-related referendums, including Maryland, but pro-lifers say the state's proposed constitutional amendment is designed to fool voters. Unrestricted abortions in the state of Maryland have been legal since 1991 and last year, state lawmakers passed an amendment enshrining abortion rights and "reproductive freedom", into its constitution. Pro-life groups say the state's Reproductive Freedom Amendment actually goes after parental rights. CEO of the pro-life group Health Not Harm, Deborah Brocato says, "There is no definition for reproductive freedom in the amendment, nor in the law, or anywhere in Maryland law. So it's a catch-all phrase to refer to anything that pertains to the reproductive system or the reproductive anatomy." She says every parent wants to have that authority over their child for their health care or educational decisions and this amendment could take it away. State Democrats dismiss the accusations.
