Colorado for Life Calls on Pueblo City Council to Refuse a Business License for Abortionist Seeking to Open a Late-Term Abortion Clinic in Pueblo, Colorado
Pueblo, Colorado: Dr. Leroy Carhart, an abortionist with a history of malpractice toward women, has his sights set on opening a late-term abortion clinic in Pueblo, Colorado. Because of Dr. Carhart’s extensive reputation for causing irreparable harm to women, Colorado for Life is calling on the Pueblo city council to refuse to license a clinic run by him.
“The Pueblo City Council answers to the people of Pueblo, and members should use the power of their elected office to refuse to license Dr. Carhart,” said Marcie Little, executive director for Colorado for Life. “Regardless of beliefs about abortion, Pueblo residents can agree that Dr. Carhart poses a threat to the health and safety of women in southern Colorado.”
Here are more reasons Dr. Carhart should never be licensed to open a clinic in Pueblo:
23 women in the last 10 years have been transported to emergency rooms following abortion procedures in his clinics
At least one woman died from complications after her abortion
One woman suffered life-threatening internal injuries following her late-term abortion and almost died
Multiple women have hemorrhaged after late-term abortions from Dr. Carhart
He is currently under investigation in the state of Nebraska for horrific injuries to women
He has allowed abortions to be performed in his clinics without proper licensing
Too many women have been victims of Dr. Carhart for the city of Pueblo to allow him to open a clinic in the city.
To join Colorado for Life in opposing a new Carhart clinic in Pueblo, readers can sign the Protect Women Petition.
