National Anti-Birth Control Activist Touring Montana to Hawk Constitutional Amendment

by: Montana Cowgirl

Fri Oct 16, 2009 at 05:14:42 AM MST


This weekend, one of the nations most infamous opponents of birth control will travel to Montana to pitch the so-called "personhood" amendment.  The amendment is a total ban on abortion with no exceptions that is written in such a way that it could also ban many forms of birth control, some fertility treatments, and cause a host of legal and budgetary problems.    

The Pill Kills project is among the more extreme and dangerous of the American Life League's activities.   The campaign spreads lies such as telling women that birth inherently dangerous and may lead to "shrinking of the womb"  and even death.

These "Bury Obamacare with Kennedy" signs, first seen at the 9/12 march in Washington DC, were the brainchild of  Judie Brown, director of the American Life League and denounced by the Catholics she claimed to work to support as

"an outrage and an embarrassment to the Catholic community [that] scor[es] cheap political points at the expense of common good solutions to the current crisis in the health care system."

This campaign marks the fourth attempt in two years (two initiatives, two legislative referenda) in Montana to redefine personhood and interfere in Montana's constitutionally protected right to privacy.  Anti-choice groups fell nearly 20,000 signatures short of qualifying for the 2008 ballot.  In order to qualify for the 2010 ballot, proponents will have to collect 48,674 signatures, including 10 percent of the voters in each of 40 legislative house districts.
