Kamala Harris Would be a Disaster for Unborn Babies
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way—in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.”
With that sentence, Charles Dickens opened A Tale of Two Cities, one of the most popular novels ever written. The story revolves around the French revolution and independence in the late 1700s, shortly after America claimed its independence.
The story itself may not match what is happening in America today, but the opening sentence does. Depending on your political leanings and what your favorite candidate does or says, this country has two ways of looking at everything.
Depending on who you listen to, former President Donald Trump is either amazing or he is an overbearing caveman. Depending on who you listen to, Vice President Kamala Harris is either a breath of fresh air or she is a cackling airhead. Whatever one candidate says, supporters cheer, opponents jeer. If one candidate says something is green, the other candidate’s supporters say it is purple.
I’m not sure the country has been this divided since protests over the Vietnam war 60 some years ago. And since the divide has reached practically every issue, the discord isn’t about to end any time soon.

That polarization on either side can be confounding. Each side wonders how the other can really believe what they’re saying.
What do we do as pro-lifers? We remember that we are in this because ours is the movement of love. We respond by being tenacious and being confident in what we believe. Our job is to persuade and persist as we seek to protect the most vulnerable among us against the onslaught of pro-abortion Democrats.
I hope voters will look at each candidate and consider the effect of their policies should they win. For any pro-lifers uncomfortable with Donald Trump, I encourage them to imagine the future after four years of a Harris-Walz administration. Ask yourself, will 2025 be a season of Light or a season of Darkness, the spring of hope or the winter of despair?
We’ve already seen what the Biden-Harris administration has done or is trying to do in their quest for absolutely unlimited abortion. They are expanding abortion into military departments, pushing emergency rooms to become abortion facilities, withholding funds from states who protect preborn children, using our tax dollars to support abortion in other countries, and much, much more.
The Biden-Harris administration has, through determination and the use of executive orders, pre-empted congressional activity and ignored long-standing statutes in order to advance abortion throughout our country.
If we have four years of a Harris-Walz administration, the last four years will look pretty tame by comparison.
Harris has already expressed her desire to “restore the protections of Roe” into federal law. But the only legislation on the table for Harris and Democrats is the so-called “Women’s Health Protection Act,” (WHPA) which goes much further than Roe. Does the public understand that the WHPA would enshrine unlimited abortion until birth in federal law and policies, and eliminate existing state-level protections for unborn children and their mothers such as parental involvement measures for minors?
Her vice-presidential running mate, Tim Walz, outright lied to the American public during Tuesday night’s vice-presidential debate. As Governor of Minnesota, he did advocate for, and sign, a bill that does, in Minnesota, what the WHPA would do nationally. He also signed legislation that removed legal protections for babies who survive an abortion, moving from abortion into infanticide. When Sen. J.D. Vance called him on this, Walz flatly denied the effect of both laws.
Every federal judge nominated by a President Harris will be committed to upholding abortion rather than the constitution.
Abortion will become just another routine procedure mandated throughout all government programs. Hospitals will be required to perform abortions in order to receive federal funding. States will have to allow abortion in order to receive federal funds for any program.
Pregnancy centers will face an onslaught of fictitious charges and attacks. They will be accused of providing false and misleading information, even as they seek to help pregnant women through a difficult time.
Being present in front of an abortion facility or posting pro-life information on a social media site will be disallowed.
I am painting an extremely dark picture of a possible future. But, I assure you, a Harris-Walz administration will not stop until every pro-life law is wiped off the books, and they will attempt to see every pro-lifer crushed for speaking out. The full force of the federal government will be trying to block us every step of the way.
Of course, if Harris does win, we will continue to fight for life—pro-lifers don’t give up– but the deck will definitely be stacked against us. To visit an abortion clinic was a symbolic gesture that speaks volumes about Harris and her priorities. Clearly a Harris administration would come after pro-lifers with a vengeance.
Donald Trump views pro-life people as allies, as he should. We have worked hard to elect him on three separate occasions. The choice in this election is clear.
When it comes to protecting unborn babies, will the next four years be the best of times or the worst of times?
