    Catholic Senator Michael Sanchez Funded By Albuquerque’s Abortion Cartel

    May 2, 2016 /

    By Tara Shaver Albuquerque, NM- For years Michael Sanchez (D- NM Senate Majority Leader ) has made it impossible for pro-life bills that make it to the Senate to get out of committee, he consistently places these bills in “kill committees” where the bills are prevented from going to a vote on the floor. As a Catholic Democrat many wondered why he consistently did this, when on January 28, 2016 he was honored by Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains for his “lifelong commitment to Reproductive Health and Rights” it all became very clear that he has put politics before his faith. Simply put he has been bought and paid for by Albuquerque’s abortion…

These national protests are being organized by the #ProtestPP coalition, formed in response to the undercover videos released last year showing Planned Parenthood officials discussing the harvesting and selling of body parts from aborted children.

    Complaint Filed: Planned Parenthood Nurse Breaking NM Law By Performing Abortions

    April 14, 2016 /

    By Tara Shaver Albuquerque, NM- Protest ABQ has filed a formal complaint with the New Mexico Nursing Board against Vivianne Clark. Clark is a Registered Nurse, license number RN-71112 who is employed by Planned Parenthood of New Mexico. New Mexico law states that only licensed physicians can perform abortions. Vivianne Clark is not a licensed physician and is therefore in violation of New Mexico’s Criminal Abortion Statute, NMSA Section 30-5-1, et seq.  Medicaid data obtained by Protest ABQ through a public records request indicates that since 2012, New Mexico taxpayers have footed the bill for over 200 illegal abortions performed by Vivianne Clark. In 2013 alone Vivianne Clark performed 91 illegal abortions and was paid over $11,000 from New Mexico Medicaid. Clark has been reimbursed by New Mexico medicaid…

    April 12, 2016 /

    (This screenshot from Medical Students for Choice shows the link between late-term abortionist Curtis Boyd at Southwestern Women’s Options and abortion training in New Mexico.) By Tara Shaver Albuquerque, NM- Reuters reported today that even though the number of abortion clinics is dwindling, young medical doctors who want to kill babies by abortion is on the rise due to training programs like Medical Students for Choice and the Ryan Residency Training Program. The University of New Mexico School of Medicine (UNM) is listed as a Medical Students for Choice Chapter, and as we previously reported, UNM has been listed as a Ryan Residency Training site since 2011. Both programs contribute to the radical abortion agenda…

When we learned that the UNM Regents were making changes that included reigning in Dr. Paul Roth (the godfather of abortion) and ensuring that there is more oversight and accountability we welcomed the changes. For many years now we have uncovered and exposed the abortion agenda at UNM and waited for leadership to work to change the universities reputation, it appears that change has begun… Protest Outside of Roth’s subdivision in Albuquerque Even though it seems that positive changes are being made, we are still determined to see Roth and…

    By Tara Shaver Albuquerque, NM- The Select Investigative Panel on Infant Lives has issued 12 additional subpoenas to fetal tissue procurement organizations who continue to refuse full compliance with the panels investigation into the practice of fetal tissue harvesting and the use of the remains in research. According to the NY Times, “Committee investigators say they have uncovered evidence of possible illegal profiteering, questionable consent forms and inappropriate collusion between scientists seeking fetal tissue and abortion providers.” Three new subpoenas come to New Mexico focused on individuals at the University of New Mexico (UNM) and Southwestern Women’s Options. The subpoenas ask for information such as: studies, research or experiments that individuals have participated in, the number and…

    New Mexicans Forced To Fund The State’s Abortion Industry

    March 1, 2016 /

    By Tara Shaver Albuquerque, NM- Since 1998 New Mexico taxpayers have been footing the bill for women to have abortions through New Mexico Medicaid. Per the Hyde Amendment, federal money is prohibited from being used to pay for abortions, except in cases of rape, incest or life endangerment of the mother, so New Mexico became one of 17 states that uses state money to pay for abortions. New Mexico is one of 13 states that does so as a result of a court order. Based on the court decision, New Mexico Right to Choose/NARAL v Johnson, New Mexico Medicaid pays for abortions using state tax dollars for any reason, through all nine…

    Albuquerque Mayor RJ Berry Partners with NM Abortion Industry

    January 15, 2016 /

    By Fr. Stephen Imbarrato  Protest ABQ and I began protesting Mayor Berry, who professes to be pro-life, in 2015 after his repeated refusals to meet with us about our concerns regarding the nature of the abortion industry in Albuquerque as well as the difficulty we were having obtaining information about 911 emergency calls coming from city abortion facilities. We also had concerns about abortion clinic zoning and other issues. Not only has the Mayor ignored our pleas to meet, but now it appears as if he is working with the abortion industry in Albuquerque. “Pregnant” is a teen pregnancy documentary that debuted August 15th, 2015 at the Kimo theater.

    By Bud and Tara Shaver Happy New Year from our family to yours! God has been faithful this past year.
