INSANE: New Jersey Governor CRIMINALIZES Praying Outside Abortion Clinics

• 
  New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill signed SS260 on Thursday, which prohibits “interference” with abortion and ‘transgender’ services.
  
  
• 
  The legislation makes it a criminal offense to harass or block individuals from accessing abortions, while strengthening the protected status of abortionists and abortion businesses.
  
  
• 
  The bill also allows a person to sue anyone who “causes a reasonable person to suffer damage to the person’s business or personal reputation, financial harm, or pain and suffering, mental anguish, or emotional harm” due to committing or receiving an abortion.
  
  
• 
  Pro-lifers warn the bill will limit the free speech and prayer of pro-life sidewalk counselor outside abortion businesses.

BREAKING: Outrage is erupting nationwide after New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) signed a law that could IMPRISON Christians that pray outside abortion facilities

This is INSANE! Strike it down!

MCENANY: “Some people could face 18 months in prison for simply praying outside a facility. And if the state upgrades the charge, pro-life advocates could face up to 10 years in prison plus a fine of up to $150,000.”

Totally unconstitutional. This might end up at SCOTUS.

“Governor Sherrill just signed a blank check for the abortion industry and a death warrant for countless unborn children with beating hearts, and she did it despite thousands of emails from New Jersey residents urging her to veto this bill,” said NJRTL Executive Director Marie Tasy. “S2260 does not protect women. It protects the people who end the lives of living human children already growing in the womb. New Jersey should be a sanctuary for mothers and babies, not a legal fortress for those who profit from abortion…”

The bill also creates a new crime of “interference with reproductive health care services.” “Because terms such as “threat,” “intimidate,” and “coerce” are inherently subjective and rest on individual feelings, this language poses a serious danger to free speech,” said Tasy. “Peaceful sidewalk counseling, prayer, holding signs, or simply offering help and alternatives outside a facility can easily be labeled “intimidation” by someone who claims to feel threatened, leaving pro-life advocates open to criminal charges that are difficult to disprove and chilling constitutionally protected expression.”

“The use of the term ‘reproductive’ to describe abortion defies the very meaning of reproduction. Reproduction has already taken place once a child is conceived. Abortion does not advance reproduction; it ends the life of a living human child whose heart is already beating. Calling a procedure whose intended outcome is the death of that child “health care” is a perverse distortion of both language and reality.”

“This law is a deliberate act of defiance against the most basic human right — the right to life of every child in the womb with a beating heart,” Tasy said. “Governor Sherrill and her allies have chosen to put the full power of state government behind abortion while building walls to keep accountability out and they are now creating vague new criminal penalties that can be used to silence those who object to these radical policies. That is not compassion. That is blatant extremism. Women deserve meaningful support and genuine alternatives, not a state government focused on expanding protections for abortion.”
