Infamous Illinois abortion facility sends three more women to the hospital

Hope Clinic for Women in Granite City, Illinois, is likely one of the most dangerous abortion facilities in the country — not just for preborn human life, but for women. Contrary to the old mantra that abortion should be “safe, legal, and rare,” abortion at Hope Clinic appears to be largely none of these.  

Just this past month, in December 2023, another three women were transported by emergency vehicles from Hope Clinic to a hospital. That brings the total of documented emergencies at one of America’s most dangerous clinics to at least 15 for the entire year. Hope Clinic for Women has seen a dramatic increase of business since neighboring states imposed strict protections for the preborn.

Hope Clinic for Women regularly skirts state law prohibiting abortions after “viability” and even advertises as much. The facility has recently started advertising abortions up to 27 weeks and 6 days. At 28 weeks of development, a baby can survive outside the womb at a rate of 80 to 90%.  

One of the latest botched abortions at Hope Clinic was on a 25-week-old fetus — over six months of gestation. According to Operation Rescue, most states consider the gestational age of viability — a highly subjective concept, in reality — to begin at 24 weeks. 

While the Illinois Department of Public Health looks the other way when it comes to viability, they also seem apathetic when it comes to the multiple unfortunate women who must be urgently transported to the hospital.

It was Pennsylvania’s Department of Public Health that also chose to look the other way in the case of Kermit Gosnell. Kermit Gosnell, a notorious abortionist, also regularly performed abortion after viability while flouting state laws. He was eventually convicted and sentenced to prison for his crimes.    

The governor of Illinois boasted that over 10,000 abortion and abortion-related procedures have been committed on women who traveled from around the region. Abortion proves itself again to be neither safe for babies, nor the women who seek it.

The DOJ put a pro-life grandmother in jail this Christmas for protesting the killing of preborn children. Please take 30-seconds to TELL CONGRESS: STOP THE DOJ FROM TARGETING PRO-LIFE AMERICANS.
