(LifeSiteNews) — A Yahoo Finance editor recently blamed pro-lifers and pregnancy resource centers for a shortage of diapers.
Or at least that’s what the headline led readers to believe the story would be about. “America is facing a diaper crisis, and the anti-abortion movement is making it worse,” Sandra Salathe wrote on October 9. She is pro-abortion, having expressed “how heartbroken and disappointed” she was on June 24 when the Supreme Court reversed Roe v. Wade. She also was on the “brink of crying” because of the reversal of Roe.
But the only connection between a lack of diapers and the pro-life movement is that some states take taxpayer dollars intended for needy families and allow pregnancy resource centers to use that money – to support families in need.
Most of Salathe’s article consisted of reprinting criticism and including quotes from a pro-abortion group called Equity Forward and an old report it released called “Seven Reasons Why Anti-Abortion Centers Are a Problem, Not a Solution.” The report is undated but references an upcoming December 2021 Supreme Court hearing of Dobbs v. Jackson.
