Legislation Aiming to Classify Abortion as Homicide Meets Demise
NASHVILLE SCENE
Bradley Pierce, president of the Foundation to Abolish Abortion, helped write the bill and traveled in from Texas for the Tuesday meeting. Like Barrett, he accused “pro-life” Republican legislators of not being pro-life enough.
“Pro-life leaders and politicians here are aligning themselves with Planned Parenthood and opposing equal protection, which would outlaw abortion,” Pierce tells the Scene. “That's why we call ourselves abolitionists. We're for life, but we're not pro-life, because that's what the pro-life movement does.”
