I do want to add that I agree it is not pro-life to cut services to families and to make childcare more expensive. These bills are anti-choice. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in opposition to these two deceptively titled bills: H.R. 6945, the Supporting Pregnant and Parenting Women and Families Act, which allows Health and Human Services funds to be sent to crisis pregnancy centers, and H.R. 6359, the Pregnant Students' Rights Act, which unfairly limits the information it requires colleges to provide to students and the students it chooses to support. Most crisis pregnancy centers are sham organizations. They have the sole purpose of advancing an anti-choice agenda. They routinely engage in deceptive advertising to get people in the doors, hold themselves out as medical clinics, and then use blatant misinformation about the services they provide. This deception is wrong on so many levels, and these centers should be held accountable, not receive government funds.
