University of Wisconsin ties to Planned Parenthood Last week’s Monday Update highlighted the Planned
Parenthood internships offered by Pro-Life But just how tied to Planned Parenthood is the University
of Wisconsin-Madison, the “flagship” of the UW System? The following items are linked to supporting websites: - UW promotes Planned Parenthood (including
abortion services); - Alta Charo, a professor of law and bioethics at the UW Law
and Medical Schools, is on the Planned Parenthood
Federation of America board and the Alan Guttmacher board; - Doug Laube, professor and former chair of the UW Ob/Gyn
Medical School, is openly “working in collaboration with Planned Parenthood of
Wisconsin;” - Faye Wattleton, former director of the Planned
Parenthood Federation of America, will be a guest panelist for a UW School of Business summit; - Planned Parenthood of Additionally, Jacqueline Boynton is on the board of
directors of Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin and
is an associate lecturer at UW-Milwaukee and
an adjunct professor at Marquette University Law School. Wisconsin Statute 20.9275 prohibits spending state funds
on programs that provide, encourage, or refer for abortions. The National
Pro-Life T-shirt Week begins tomorrow! April 27— May 3
It is much harder to murder a
person than it is to “remove a lump of tissue,” and it is only when we
finally get the nation thinking in those terms that we will be able to make
abortion a crime, as it should be. To learn more, click

Senate confirms pro-abortion appointee to UW Hospital and Clinics Board On a party-line vote last Thursday, the Wisconsin Senate
voted to confirm Roger Axtell to
the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics (UWHC) Authority Board for
a five-year term. Axtell was confirmed on an 18-15 vote (click here for the roll call). All
Republican Senators voted against his confirmation. On February 4, 2009, UWHC board member Roger Axtell voted
in favor of establishing a second-trimester abortion practice at the Madison
Surgery Center (MSC), a joint venture between the UW Medical Foundation, the
UWHC and Pro-Life Pro-Life The Wisconsin Senate and
Assembly have adjourned for the 2009-2010 legislative session and will
reconvene in January 2011. Next month PLW will publish a summary of the
2009-2010 session. Study confirms
autism boom; correlates with fetal DNA in vaccines From LifeSiteNews: A recent study by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has confirmed
1988 as a “change point” in the rise of Autism Disorder rates in the While the EPA study does not
speculate into the cause of the jump in autism rates, and makes no mention of
aborted fetal cells, the researchers point out that it “is important to
determine whether a preventable exposure to an environmental factor may be
associated with the increase.” According to the pro-life group
Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute (SCPI), which specializes in vaccine
research, that “environmental factor” may well be the use of aborted fetal
cells in vaccines. The group pointed out in its
most recent newsletter that 1988 is the same year the U.S. Advisory Committee
on Immunization Practices began recommending a second dose of the MMR
vaccine, which included cells derived from the tissue of aborted babies. Analyses of autism rate data
published by SCPI identify 3 clear change points in U.S. autism disorder
trends: 1981, 1988 and 1995, all of which the groups claims roughly correlate
with the use of vaccines (Meruvax, MMRII, and Chickenpox) that were
cultivated with the use of tissue from aborted children. The group says
that it has been unable to identify any other factor that might correlate to the
change in autism rates. “The only environmental event
correlating with these statistical autism trend ‘change points’ which would
impact almost all children was the introduction of vaccines produced using
human fetal cells and containing residual human DNA and cellular debris,”
said SCPI. Pro-life groups say that the
research by EPA adds to an increasing body of evidence implicating the use of
aborted fetal cell material in the nationwide vaccinations impacting nearly
every child born in the American
Idol gives back — to Planned Parenthood From LifeNews: The popular talent television
show American Idol has again decided to align itself with pro-abortion groups
for its annual "Idol Gives Back" fund-raising campaign. The
program, which aired April 21, will send donations from viewers to Save the
Children and the United Nations Foundation, both of which back abortion. Save the Children has a working
relationship with what it describes as "prominent international
organizations," but the groups read like a who's who of the pro-abortion
movement. They include the pro-abortion
Center for Reproductive Rights legal group, the mammoth Planned Parenthood
Federation of America abortion business, Population Action International, and
the U.S. Committee for UNICEF. Affiliate announcements Mark Kimble, a Dane County affiliate member, is doing an Appalachian Hike For Life this
