A spokeswoman for the YWCA is denying reports that her organization supports the controversial Freedom of Choice Act. –
One News Now reports The YWCA, formerly known as the Young Women’s Christian Association, is
celebrating its 150th anniversary. According to a report from
CitizenLink.com, YWCA CEO Lorraine Cole reaffirmed the organization’s
pro-abortion stance and even stated that her organization supports the
controversial Freedom of Choice Act. If passed, that act would abolish
all state-level restrictions and limitations on abortion in America.
“At no point did Dr. Cole, who is the YWCA CEO, …state that we were
in support of this legislation,” she contends. “I believe that the
question that was posed to her was whether or not she thought
president-elect Obama would be supporting the legislation.” (Watch video)
Loving did however affirm that the YWCA supports a “woman’s right to
choose,” which includes abortion. When asked whether the organization
still holds to any Christian aspect, Loving said that it does not.
