Rep. John Dingell Explains ‘Control of the People’

83-year-old Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.) perhaps explained more than he intended about the intent of the political Progressives in Congress during a radio interview following the passage of the Obama health care bill.

OFPC Holds State Capitol News Conference

This morning, OFPC Executive Director Mike Jestes participated in a State Capitol news conference with Rep. Rebecca Hamilton (D-Oklahoma City), Dr. Dominic Pedulla, and other pro-life leaders regarding HB 3077.

This bill, which is now in the state Senate would, like in eight other states and several countries, prevent the paying of compensation to young women who risk their health to donate human eggs to fertility clinics and for medical research purposes.

Under the legislation, all women could continue to donate their eggs for IVF purposes, in an effort to conceive a child, but no compensation would be paid.

In a moral society, Oklahomans shouldn't want to unnecessarily put young women's health at risk via egg harvesting and allow creation of an unethical market for body parts.
