The pro-choice movement is a sociopolitical movement that supports the view that a woman has a right to terminate her pregnancy. In the United States, the pro-choice movement is led by a variety of organizations, with no central decision making body. While these groups have different agendas, they collectively use propaganda in order to communicate with certain demographics and influence support for their cause. The goal of pro-choice groups is to target their message towards women between the ages of 16 and 39, otherwise defined as women who can potentially become pregnant. They are effective at doing this through placing their message in advertisements on college campuses, as well as in various outlets throughout the media such as television …show more content…
The organization's electoral exertion comes as it combats increased defunding efforts in as a result of videos by a pro-life group depicting Planned Parenthood staff members discussing fetal tissue donations. While the group’s website has yet to officially endorse a candidate, the website does state that Senator Marco Rubio of Florida supports a ban on abortion with no exceptions for victims of rape, that Governor Jeb Bush of Florida cut state funding for Planned Parenthood, and Senator Ted Cruz of Texas lead the national effort to shut down Planned Parenthood earlier in 2015 (Huffington Post Planned Parenthood). Planned Parenthood’s new website is interactive, and the group plans on using the rise in curiosity about their brand to raise awareness for the candidates who support their …show more content…
One example of this was in April 2014 when NARAL Pro-Choice America was able to convince Google, the most widely used search engine in the world, to remove web search ads for some “crisis pregnancy centers,” due to what they believed was “deceptive advertising” (WASHINGTON POST Google). Before they were removed, advertisements for crisis pregnancy centers would appear when someone would search the phrase “abortion clinic” on Google, however, NARAL Pro-Choice America contested that the goal of crisis pregnancy centers were to provide clients with information about alternatives to abortion. Upon reviewing the case, google removed all advertisements for crisis pregnancy centers that coincided with abortion clinic searches on their server, creating a victory for NARAL Pro-Choice America over their contrasting
“Pro-Choice or for-Abortion” activists believe in women’s rights, they want to protect the rights of women and what they can do with their own bodies, while those against it “Pro-Lifers or Anti-Abortion”
Pro-choice describes political and ethical views that a woman should have the control over her fertility and the choice to continue or terminate her pregnancy. Pro-choice activists argue that an embryo has no rights as it is only a potential and not an actual person and its rights should not override those of the mother’s until after it is born. The right to choose to have an abortion is personal and essential to women’s lives and without this right, women cannot exercise their rights and liberties guaranteed to them by the Constitution. Without the right to choose an abortion the 14th amendment’s guarantee of liberty has little meaning for women. Another point made could include that a man can withdraw from a relationship when he finds out that his spouse is pregnant, it is only fair that women be given the same choice.
Those who agree with the laws on abortion are strong supporters of the woman's right to choose. Hence, they call themselves pro-choice advocates. These persons are in support of abortions no matter
Pro-choice believers support the right to privacy and the idea women should have the choice to do what she pleases with her own body. For example; a woman is raped by a man and becomes pregnant with his child. She decides she doesn’t want to keep the baby; she has an abortion because mental affect her if she has to look at the baby of
Planned Parenthood is a controversial topic sweeping the nation of America with political and moral issues. Every day one could come across a new article on it, stubble upon a news article in their local paper or even on their local news station. Planned Parenthood directly provides reproductive health services, is involved in teach young students about sexual education, contributes to research in reproductive technology, and interacts with legal and political efforts aimed at protecting and developing reproductive rights.
The website pro-life.com is a grand depiction of pro-life standpoints such as Abortion, Euthanasia and assisted suicide, the death penalty, War, finite omission. This website depicts several negative ideas about abortion this it shows several articles and videos. The pro-life movement argues that a non-viable, undeveloped human life is sacred and sanctified the government. Spearheading this operation is the website prolife.com.
“Nothing matters.” That quote attributed to Ambrose Bierce may be true in some cases. It may be true to those who do not value the funding of Planned Parenthood. But something does matter. And that is the funding of the healthcare resource Planned Parenthood. Many do not understand the vital role Planned Parenthood plays in the lives of up and coming parents. Planned Parenthood has been operating and serving those in need of care in the United States and overseas for more than 40 years (“Planned Parenthood Global”). Planned Parenthood has vowed in their mission statement:
Since many believe that Planned Parenthood only performs abortions, a frenzy against it has been created. “We don’t want to commit taxpayer funding for abortions, and Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider” (Strickland quoting Paul Ryan, 2017). Republicans rather see federal funding go towards federal community centers. However, to clarify this misconception we need to look at what federal funding is going towards. Planned Parenthood receives its funding from Medicaid reimbursements (Berg, 2017). They do not keep any hidden money, or have money put aside to preform free abortions. As the federal money that comes in goes straight towards helping patients.
NARAL pro-choice America is an organization made up of pro-choice women and men that was founded in February of 1969 in Chicago, Illinois. This organization supports legislations to protect access to abortion and bring awareness to reproductive issues. From the “NARAL Pro-Choice of America” from the Salem Press Encyclopedia, this organization’s goal is to guarantee reproductive health which includes the right to have safe and legal abortions to end pregnancy. This group also advocates safe sex education, birth control, quality prenatal care for future mothers or adopters, and fights for paid family leave for new parent(s). This groups are created so abortion is available to any woman, that wishes to end the pregnancy and is another reason on why abortions are important for women and their right to choose it to end pregnancy, and being pro-choice is important so people can support women and their reproductive rights.
Affordable reproductive health care is hard to find for low-income women, and many people feel that without Planned Parenthood women will have no care at all. Another problem according to the article “Planned Parenthood and the Next Generation of Feminist Activists”, the younger generation Americans do not “want to be labeled. They don’t like being singularly defined by their political party, or their sexual orientation, or their views on abortion” (Laguens 188). The younger generation simply do not want to identify as “pro-choice” or
They scream at Congress to legalize abortion in all states. The thousands of women that die from back alley abortions and suicide because they have no access to abortion clinics are unnecessary deaths. They also provide hard facts and statistics showing the legalization of abortion lowers crime rates, is safer than natural pregnancy, and has little to no side effects (physiological or psychological) on the woman undergoing the procedure. They want to make sure every woman has the choice, whether it is to remain abstinent, legally abort, or keep her child. Rape and incest are strong focal points of the pro-life mission statement. No woman should be forced to go through 9 months of pregnancy if it is not her choice to do so.
Education about sexual health is no longer just in the classroom or in a hidden book in the library. It can now be accessed anywhere such as magazines, movies, and especially through websites on the internet. Even though the internet is a widely used resource for information on sexual health, not all of these websites are reputable. In this analysis we will be investigating three websites that talk about sexual health, and how resourceful they are to the public.
Pro-choice supporters on the other hand have been raised in a higher social class where more than likely both parents, but at least the father, have a college degree. They have pursued college and have married mate equal to themselves. They share beliefs with their mates that they are equal beings and want to give their children the best they can. Hence the fact, they would rather not bring a child into the world without being able to fully provide for the child the way they were provided for.
Abortion rights are one of the most heatedly debates in society. There are many arguments for and against abortion. Each woman has the right to an abortion and the right to have a child. Women have the resources, rights, and respect to make reproductive health decisions that are best for themselves. (“Women’s”) We live in a free country and women should continue to have the choice to do whatever with their body, concerning women’s rights, health issues, and religious reasons.
My second interest grew in the early part of this year when I learned that President Trumps GOP budget proposal seeks to cut funds which could hurt Planned Parenthood. After learning of this, I knew that this cut would be a danger to many women who seek Planned Parenthood to provide medical resources to them and their families. By going against this budget cut, I stand with the millions of citizens and Planned Parenthood itself by proving to the government that this century year old nonprofit organization has helped over a million people by educating,
