Media Release 26 June 2022

The Prime Minister in supporting the unlawful Roe v Wade decision is supporting the previous forty-nine year reign of terror inflicted on American women and their unborn. A brutal reign which resulted in more than sixty-four million children killed before birth and sixty-four million women wounded.

Right to Life questions why the Prime Minister is misleading the community with ill-informed public statements on the important decision of the United States Supreme Court. Right to Life believes that she is conducting a campaign of misrepresentation to deceive the community into believing that women have a fundamental right to kill their children before they are born. Right to Life believes that she is trying to protect her own extremist Abortion Legislation Act 2019, which will now be subject  to increased opposition.

The Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, is reported by Stuff as saying, that “the Supreme Court’s decision is  incredibly upsetting.”

The Prime Minister claims millions of American women have lost the constitutional right to abortion. But there is nothing in the Constitution of the United States that upholds the ‘right’ to abortion.

Right to Life believes that the Prime Minister should be applauding the decision of the United States Supreme Court to overturn the unconstitutional Roe v Wade decision of the Supreme Court in 1973, which took away the democratic right of States to legislate on abortion.

The Court has ruled that there is no right to abortion in the United States Constitution and have ruled in accordance with the Constitution that abortion should be returned to each individual State to legislate on this issue.

Why then is the Prime Minister upset that the democratic right of the citizens in each State to legislate to protect women and uphold the right to life of its unborn children is being upheld by the Supreme Court?
