Courts Decide Pro-Life Nurses Don't Have To Assist in Abortions

Pro-Life Nurses Win Victory, Don’t Have to Assist in Abortions

The American Center for Law and Justice won a legal victory for a group of pro-life nurses in the Western part of the United States. The ACLJ did not specific the name or location of the hospital in question, likely due to legal and privacy issues, but it is good news for nurses who don’t want to participate in abortions.

As the pro-life legal group informed LifeNews:

Imagine you are a nurse. Imagine you have undergone extensive education and training and have chosen to specialize in assisting laboring women to safely deliver their babies. Now imagine that you arrive at work one day only to be informed that if you are not willing to participate in procedures that end the lives of those babies, you will no longer be permitted to work in your chosen field of labor and delivery. One group of nurses at a large West Coast hospital didn’t have to imagine this scenario — they lived it.
