You know, I think about just the eight years that I was at Planned Parenthood and during that time, you know, I definitely would have called myself a feminist and, you know, a champion of women.

There is not one time in that eight years where a woman came to me for help where I sat down across from her and I said, you know, I'm going to help you today.

If a woman came to me and said, I'm pregnant, I essentially looked at her and said, that's tough, you know, you're really not strong enough to do that.

You're not strong enough to be a single mom. You're not strong enough to meet your educational goals. You're not strong enough to meet your career goals.

So the only thing I have for you to do is I'm going to capitalize on your moment of weakness and I'm going to take advantage of your vulnerability and I'm going to convince you to give me money to kill your baby.

That's not strength. That's not teaching her that she's strong. That's not giving her resources. That's really the opposite of what feminism is.

Too many people don't seem to care about the truth and I would suggest that that's all rooted in people becoming less or really just anti-religious.

That's why it's more important than ever to keep our relationship with God strong.

That is hello.com slash choose life. Let's hear from Abby Johnson.

I'm Abby Johnson. I was a director of an abortion facility in Texas, which is now closed. That facility is closed.

And I worked there for eight years. Start as a volunteer, worked up the ranks, became the clinic director.

And you know, love my job that I was doing the right thing, got involved in college. And the last year of my work there started to get really uncomfortable with the way things were going, had to implement abortion quotas.
