The following is a Catholic Action League of Massachusetts press statement…
On Tuesday, August 11th, Producer Stevee Chapman, of WBUR News —– the National Public Radio affiliate in Boston — contacted the Catholic Action League of Massachusetts.
Ms. Chapman was seeking a response to the decision of Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey to sign into law, H.5595, An Act Prioritizing Patient Access To Care, which removes the last remaining restrictions on late term abortion in the Commonwealth.
League Executive Director C. J. Doyle issued the following statement:
The law is a brutal and barbarous measure, which will further expand child killing in a state whose abortion rate has already doubled in the last year.
This revised statute removes carefully prescribed language in the Massachusetts General Laws, detailing the exceptional circumstances under which abortions can be performed after the 24th week of pregnancy.
It replaces that specific language with the broad standard of “the professional judgment” of the attending physician, which means the decision to abort a fully formed, viable unborn child is entirely within the discretionary authority of the abortionist.
Massachusetts will now have one of the most permissive abortion regimes in North America, joining only nine other states and the District of Columbia in having no gestational limits on abortion.
Healey’s unsurprising decision to sign the measure into law reflects her continuing loyalty to her donor class in the abortion industry.
In 2015, following her first election to state-wide office, Healey credited Planned Parenthood for her victory, describing its endorsement as “a game changer for my campaign.”
The Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts went on to endorse Healey in the elections of 2018, 2022 and 2026.
A portion of Doyle’s remarks were quoted in this morning’s hourly news broadcasts on WBUR.
