Watch the Number of Abortion Clinics Drop on AbortionDocs.org

Washington, DC – Pro-Life Nation, an initiative of Operation Rescue, has launched its inaugural project, AbortionDocs.org, a database that will be of tremendous use to the Pro-life Movement and will aid the work as we move toward the day when abortion is finally abolished in America.

The AbortionDocs.org site is a searchable database that endeavors to list every surgical abortion clinic, every “abortion pill-only” clinic, and every abortionist in the United States. The website will soon contain the largest collection of documents ever compiled on the abortion cartel, with new documents being uploaded every day. Documents include photos, medical license applications, malpractice suits, disciplinary records, news articles, videos, criminal histories, and more.

“For the first time ever a centralized database has been created listing every abortion center in the United States. We have built a good foundation in compiling the most accurate and up-to-date list of abortion clinics known to exist,” said Troy Newman, President of Pro-Life Nation and Operation Rescue. “We are still compiling names of the abortionists who work in them. Also, the huge task of uploading the volumes of documents we have in our files has only just begun. AbortionDocs.org is a work in progress that will be maintained on a daily basis to ensure that the most accurate information possible is being presented.”

Pro-Life Nation is looking to partner with key pro-life leaders to contribute to the Abortiondocs.org database so that the true scope of abortion abuses that occur daily in this country can be documented and exposed to the American people.

The AbortionDocs.org website was two years and countless man hours in the making. The list can be used in a number of ways to expose abortion abuses committed by abortionists and their clinics. Activists around the nation can use it as a resource to identify abortion clinics in their areas so they can maintain a prayerful presence there, and discover the histories of the abortionists so women seeking abortions can be fully informed and warned of the dangers specific to a particular abortionist or clinic.

“In 1991, there were over 2,176 surgical abortion clinics in America. Today there are 663. Nearly 70% of all surgical abortion clinics have closed for good and that trend is continuing nationally,” said Newman. “We encourage folks to log on to AbortionDocs.org regularly and watch the number of abortion clinics click down.”

Pro-Life Nation Launches with Interactive New Tool: AbortionDocs.org

Wichita, KS – Operation Rescue has launched a major new initiative called Pro-Life Nation, whose purpose is to implement a comprehensive, unified, and goal-oriented strategy to end abortion in the United States. The plan involves informing and activating the pro-life grassroots while exposing the dirty truth about America’s abortion cartel and demanding enforcement of abortion laws.

A new booklet laying out the Pro-Life Nation strategy is available online at ProlifeNation.org.

Pro-life Nation’s first project is the launching of a groundbreaking web site AbortionDocs.org. This site is a searchable database that endeavors to list every surgical abortion clinic, every “abortion pill-only” clinic, and every abortionist in the United States. The website boasts that it contains the largest collection of documents ever compiled on the abortion cartel—and is growing daily.

Documents include photos, medical license applications, malpractice suits, disciplinary records, news articles, videos, criminal histories, and more.

“We believe that with the current climate in America, abortion could be eliminated every soon, if a goal-oriented strategy is employed that includes cooperation among various pro-life organizations and individuals,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman, who will also serve as president of Pro-Life Nation.

“We are excited to take the next step into expanding new, effective tactics that Operation Rescue has pioneered. While we will maintain Operation Rescue as our activist arm, most of our investigations will be conducted under the new Pro-Life Nation banner. Through Pro-life Nation, we will enlist pro-life supporters across the nation to work together in new ways to expose and report abortion misdeeds, hold officials accountable for enforcing our laws, and build a society that is truly a Pro-Life Nation.”

Operation Rescue’s Senior Policy Advisor Cheryl Sullenger also serve in the same capacity for Pro-life Nation.

Pro-Life Nation is looking to partner with key pro-life leaders to contribute to the Abortiondocs.org database so that the true scope of abortion abuses that occur daily in this country can be documented and exposed to the American people.

“Pro-life Nation and its inaugural project, AbortionDocs.org, are new works in progress, and include plans to expand the Pro-Life Nation website very soon. We encourage everyone to visit the web sites, sign up for updates, follow us on Twitter and Facebook, and contribute information about your local abortion clinic to the AbortionDocs.org data base,” said Newman.

“We face this next chapter with great anticipation and energy, and look forward to working with more wonderful pro-life people than ever to see America move closer to the day when abortion is abolished once and for all.”

Abortionist Riley Waives Hearing, Will Be Extradited to Maryland to Face Murder Charges

Salt Lake City, Utah – Abortionist Nicola Irene Riley made a brief appearance in court this morning in Salt Lake City, Utah, where she waived an extradition hearing, clearing the way for her to be transported to Maryland to face murder charges.

Riley was indicted last month by a Maryland grand jury on one count of First-Degree Murder, one count of Second-Degree Murder, and one Count of Conspiracy to commit Murder for her participation in an illegal bi-state late-term abortion scheme with the notorious New Jersey abortionist Steven Chase Brigham. She continues to be held without bail.

Brigham was charged and has already been arraigned on five counts each of First and Second-Degree Murder and one count of conspiracy to commit murder. He was released on January 6, from the Cecil County Detention Facility after posting a $500,000 bail with a combination of personal assets and the use of a bail bondsman.

Riley and Brigham were caught when Riley perforated the uterus and bowel of a late-term abortion patient at a secret late-term abortion mill in Elkton, Maryland. Their suspicious behavior at the hospital emergency room, where they had transported the bleeding patient in a rental car, raised red flags with ER workers who reported them to the police. Their clinic was later raided by police, who discovered the bodies of 35 aborted babies in a freezer. The babies were as old as 36 weeks gestation, according to documents seized during the raid.

In September, 2010, Operation Rescue filed a complaint with the State Attorney in Elkton, Maryland, asking for criminal charges against Brigham, and launched grassroots efforts to bring him to justice.

Further investigations by Operation Rescue uncovered that Riley had lied about a previous criminal conviction and prison sentence in order to gain licensure in three states. She is currently banned from doing abortions in any state.

Riley is expected to be transported to Maryland within the next few days where she will be arraigned.
