On Thursday, Democrat Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf vetoed a commonsense bill that would merely ban discrimination abortions on children with Down Syndrome.
Life News reports:
Surrounded by abortion activists, Wolf blasted two pro-life bills that passed the state House this week, claiming they would interfere “with women’s health care and the crucial decision-making between patients and their physicians,” Spotlight PA reports.
On Tuesday, the Down Syndrome Protection Act (House Bill 1500) passed the state House with bipartisan support. Sponsored by state Rep. Kate Klunk, R-Hanover, the bill would prohibit an abortion if the sole reason is because the unborn baby has a Down syndrome diagnosis and create felony charges for abortionists who violate the ban.
The other bill, the Unborn Child Dignity Act, which passed Wednesday, would require health care clinics and abortion facilities to offer mothers the option of burial or cremation for their miscarried and aborted babies. It also would ensure that abortion facilities do not throw out aborted babies with other medical waste.
Both bills are now awaiting action in the state Senate.
“Whenever an anti-choice bill comes to my desk, I will veto it,” Wolf said Thursday at a press conference with pro-abortion Democrat lawmakers and Planned Parenthood abortion activists. “If these politicians were really pro-life, they would focus on issues that support Pennsylvanians instead of shaming and criminalizing health care decisions.”
But pro-life lawmakers pushed back against Wolf’s claims, saying they are trying to protect unborn Pennsylvanians and their mothers.
Wolf just reaffirmed his extreme pro-abortion radicalism and support for disability discrimination against Down Syndrome children in the womb.
SICKENING!

Why do we put up with this garbage, who does he think he is, God? He will find out someday
why can’t we post these articles to FB?
We know a Downs Syndrome ‘child’ who is in fact at least 25 years old, and not up to the capacity of an adult, certainly, but she is the sweetest little thing, always thinking of others and pursuing drawing and stitching or needlepoint crafts to enrich the lives of others. She is precious in the eyes of God and everyone loves her. She is a blessing to her family.
We visited an infamous site in Germany: Grafeneck. Here Hitler’s goons ‘euthanized’ by lethal injection or gas over 10,600 mentally or physically challenged human beings as ‘creatures unworthy to live.’ Governor Wolf, would you fit right in there? The Lefties love to call Trump a Nazi. But the Left is a hotbed for genuine Nazis, blackshirts, mob violence and all.
Disgusting. Who defends the babies life.Only god has the right to determine who lives and who doesn’t live. People with Downs have as much right to live as he does
