Church leaders, pro-lifers and even a few Democrats are speaking out after Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) signs a bill removing any limits to abortion. This comes as pro-lifers in Illinois, including Bishop Thomas Paprocki and a Lutheran nursing home, file a lawsuit against the state’s new assisted suicide law. Plus a closer look at the push for abortion in the tiny European nation of Liechtenstein, and how the Catholic head of state is using his veto power to publicly protect the unborn. A preview of the midterm ballot initiatives involving abortion and marriage in Virginia. How the Vatican’s Bambino Gesu Hospital, founded in 1869, remains at the forefront of pediatric research and care. And thousands of K-12 students in Kansas are returning to school without their cell phones. A new law requires them to give up the devices before classes; they may retrieve them when classes end. State Sen. Chase Blasi (R) explains why he pushed for the “bell-to-bell” bill and examines the surprising bipartisan support behind it.
