Maryland Pregnancy Care Center Wins Decision against 'NARAL-Driven Attacks'

Dustin Siggins : Mar 12, 2014  LifeSiteNews.com

"These attacks backfired because the court recognized there was simply no evidence pregnancy centers are harming anyone." -ADF Senior Counsel Casey Mattox

Maryland(Montgomery, MD)—A Maryland-based pregnancy care center has won its lawsuit against a county law that requires it to post a notice stating it does not have doctors on staff. The law, which exempts abortion clinics from the same requirement, was permanently blocked by the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. (Photo via LSN)

On its website, Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) described the law as "forcing 'limited-service pregnancy centers' and individuals who have a 'primary purpose' of offering information about pregnancy" to put up signs letting clients know medical professionals are not on staff. The signs must also make clients aware that speaking with a licensed medical professional is advised by the county's health department.

ADF, which represented pro-life pregnancy center Centro Tepeyac in its fight against the law, also said that "the county intentionally crafted the law so that it doesn't apply to pro-abortion centers, such as Planned Parenthood, even if counseling is offered there by non-medical persons."

ADF Senior Counsel Casey Mattox told LifeSiteNews, "This law, and others like it, are NARAL-driven attacks on non-profit pregnancy centers because they cut into abortion's bottom line. NARAL, PP, and their allies recognize this growing threat of pro-life pregnancy centers that provide health and hope to women for free, without taking taxpayer money."
