“Stop the Gosnells” Coalition

Kermit Gosnell is not alone. You’ve read the stories. The horrors revealed during his case are endemic to the entire abortion industry.  And now it’s time for action. That’s why the SBA List is teaming up with pro-life groups across the country to launch the “Stop the Gosnells” Coalition.

The mission of Stop the Gosnells is simple:

  • Educate Americans on the Gosnell-like conditions and practices happening in abortion clinics across the country,
  • Demand action from our elected officials in Congress and in state legislatures,
  • Enact a nationwide ban on gruesome late-term abortions, and
  • Protect the dignity of women by demanding strict health and safety standards for abortion businesses.

It’s going to be a long fight, and we’re happy to have so many of our allies fighting at our side.

But unfortunately this coalition won’t be enough unless…

We have YOUR help.

The pro-life movement has always been about the grassroots effort, and that’s why we created STOPtheGosnells.com. This site gives you the tools to spread our message:

The evidence of multi-state abortion industry brutality is out there. We gather more stories from across America every day, and now we have to start the long overdue conversation in our country:

Where do we step in to protect the rights of the most vulnerable?

Baltimore Ravens Player Skips White House Visit Because Obama Backs Abortion
Baltimore Ravens offensive lineman Matt Birk is pro-life — so when it came time for the Ravens to visit President Barack Obama for the annual congratulations to the Super Bowl winners, he decided not to go.

The pro-life NFL player explained his decision: “I wasn’t there,” Birk told The Power Trip. “I would say this, I would say that I have great respect for the office of the Presidency but about five or six weeks ago, our president made a comment in a speech and he said, ‘God bless Planned Parenthood.’” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/06/baltimore-ravens-player-skips-white-house-visit-because-obama-backs-abortion/

We’ve found Kermit Gosnell’s friends

Abortionists like Kermit Gosnell and Douglas Karpen are more common than you think. They aren’t exceptions, they’re the rule. Unsafe conditions and barbaric practices in abortion clinics are an epidemic, not a random occurrence. The blood splattered walls and freezers full of children do not just exist in a few clinics in Pennsylvania and Texas. They’re in clinics across the nation from Illinois to Virginia.

Gosnell is Not An Outlier

Every day SBA List uncovers more clinics around the country and adds them to our fact sheet of negligence and brutality. It falls to us to expose the abortion industry’s inhumanity because pro-abortion politicians and their allies in the mainstream media refuse to acknowledge the horror shows.

At SBA List, we know the multi-state breakdown of oversight of the abortion industry has gone on for too long. Many states have not enacted or enforced basic regulations for abortionists across the country, and vulnerable women suffer the consequences of their inaction.  States have left the abortion industry to regulate itself, and across the board it has led to disaster. They refuse to acknowledge that abortionists are driven by one goal: make as much money as possible by ending lives and hurting women at high prices.  This has to change, and SBA List is taking the lead to get it done.

We cannot allow Kermit Gosnell conditions and practices across the country to go unnoticed. The abortion industry knows no bounds and no borders, and we’ve discovered a frightening trend. The worst abortionists cross into states that don’t enforce regulations on abortion. For instance, did you know that Kermit Gosnell also worked in a clinic in Delaware that the state never inspected? Not only that, but we’ve identified several other abortionists like Gosnell who still perform abortions today even after numerous victims and staff members have come forward to their state governments:

  • Douglas Karpen still practices abortions in Houston, TX even after his former staff members released the photos of viable babies from failed abortions whose necks had been wrung.
  • Dr. Leroy Carhart still practices abortions in Nebraska and Maryland even after his negligence likely led to the death of Jennifer Morbelli.

You might recognize Douglas Karpen from that list, but you probably didn’t read about him from major news networks. The state of Texas has started an investigation, but like with most abortionists, the Texas Medical Board has already dismissed his abuses. These men need to see justice. They need to be stopped. And, we have to act.  We must demand that Congress and state legislatures stop turning a blind eye.
