this is Cristian Gomez with the new
American magazine and today we have with
us on the program again Heather Hobbs
pro-life speaker with Saved The 1
welcome back Heather we're glad to have
you on the program hi Christian thanks
for having me okay so it looks like that
in Illinois as state representative
named Daniel dduk a Democrat who
represents Illinois's 59th district
which is located in the heart of
Chicago's metro area has filed
legislation that would bar state
employees board members and agents from
traveling on state funds to other states
that have passed pro-life legislation
now this Democrat lawmaker dduk says
that these laws that these pro-life laws
are very dangerous what's your take on
this proposed law in Illinois well as
you know Christian and my friends over
at the numeron magazine I was in Georgia
earlier this year
testifying for the controversial
heartbeat bill HB 481 which originally
was a no exceptions bill which is why
st. the one had a presence there and
because of Georgia I think that's
probably been the the biggest news story
in relation to pro-life slowly because
Alyssa Milano had a lot of I guess she
had a lot of things to say about it many
and in Holly were threatening to boycott
the state of Georgia yes absolutely and
I'm I'm thinking that that's where this
you know next media hype that's what I
like to call it I feel like these laws
that they present they don't care they
don't think it's actually dangerous
they're playing off the fact that
there's this controversy in Georgia and
they want to get their self in the news
and so absolutely not no pro-life laws
they're not dangerous and what what
travel do they have in mind that would
be dangerous for a woman you know is it
the fact that she's already pregnant
does that mean that she's she can't have
her abortion in their state before she
leaves like I don't understand what
they're saying these dangers here and
I've
presented it to a few of my pro-life
obqi friends like dr. bill Lyle and/or
dr. William Lyle you can look him up on
pro-life dot he has said there's no
situation in which this legislation
would be imminent or necessary I think
that the Democratic lawmaker is afraid
of legitimizing these sort of pro-life
laws but in an era when Democrats
especially as the presidential election
is heating up are talking about uniting
the country do you see this legislation
is one that unites the country or does
this just bring more division to the
political scene and as well as on this
important pro-life issue absolutely not
this is not incite unity at all this is
just adding on the controversy that is
already in the media it's like they've
taken this this issue and they're making
this one of the main topics for the
Democratic presidential campaign right
now right we want free abortions on
demand full term no limitations we're
not going to apologize for it and and
it's a highlighted thing for them right
now so anybody who can get their two
cents in on how they're the most
pro-choice or pro-life eel-like that's
what this is all about this isn't it all
about unity and in fact it's causing
even more contention however my my
thought it is just like President Donald
Trump right now has been saying they are
giving him more voters by trying to
impeach him and pausing you know more
contention and attacking him I think the
same is said to be true about these
pro-life states they are going to help
this cause even further because there
are people who are you know they
identify as a Democrat but they're not
as Extreme as what is being presented on
the Democratic side in relation to these
laws and so I believe that they're going
to be pushing more people who are you
know I would say they call themselves
pro-choice but they limit themselves at
maybe 14 weeks or 20 weeks whatever it
is and for them these types of things
are way too
bar and they are recognizing that this
is causing more contention more fighting
in the streets more more death more
controversy and this is they see this is
not a Unitarian effort this isn't to
bring people together and I you know
like I said I'm I see that it it's
terrible because they're adding more
contention but I also believe that it's
helping people finally see what's been
happening for many years on that side so
you think legislation like this one
proposed by this Democrat is actually
gonna push more people including
democrats away from sort of the radical
pro-choice pro-abortion position we've
seen four come from the party especially
this year as they've resisted any and
all attempts to try to protect unborn
human life even in the most sensible
situations i absolutely believe that's
what's gonna happen because they're not
leaving any middle ground for their sort
of moderate democrats or even even maybe
the typical democrat that is more or
less leaning there they're essentially
saying if you don't agree with
absolutely everything
then you're not a democrat we don't want
you and they're they're leaving these
people in the middle feeling like they
don't have a side so where are they
gonna go they're gonna come over to our
side
now i'm not sure if you saw in the news
earlier this year and a few months ago
there is an article that i read talking
about how there are democratic leaders
who are pro-life like in louisiana we
have there's a pro-life democrat and i
can't recall his name right now but
there is a democratic leadership and my
friends at new way feminist a pro-life
democrat i know through as well as
pro-life san francisco and pro-life
democrats they were just in houston a
couple of weeks ago the man being a
pro-life democrat run for president
however right now they know that it's
essentially too late and what i've been
seeing and it was in the news earlier
this year is the democratic party is
trying to get rid of any pro-life
democrat
so I'm trying to get them out of office
and 2-meters purging all pro-life
thought within the party exactly so
there are you know I would say a good
couple of dozen pro-life democrats that
my friends who are pro-life democrats
have brought to me and my attention and
they've said you know we don't want
these democrats we don't want them in
our party they are an abomination
they're not through democrats whatever
their verbiage is and so again the left
is they're seeing this that they are
picking these people out that they're
trying to get rid of their jobs and
you're now leaving democrats that have a
substantial boat without a voice they're
not feeling heard and so they're going
to end up voting for the other side
because their moral conscience can't
agree with aborting a thirty eight
thirty eight week baby is there any
final thoughts you'd like to mention on
this issue before we end the program
absolutely if i believe that there are a
good number of people out there who do
want to bring unity that are on both
sides of the spectrum and plenty of
in-between and so for those who do want
to work on unity get involved contact
your local Pregnancy Resource Center you
can reach out to me on either hospital X
speaker and Facebook or our organization
save the one we have pages where we are
working with pro-life democrats right
now we are making an effort to give a
voice to democrats who are pro-life or
who are not in support of the full term
abortion pact they are funded which is
another big issue I'm finding Democrats
they that do support abortion they don't
want to pay for it because they don't
see it as health care so we are willing
and able and wanting to help give a
voice to these people and if the
Democrats don't want them we we
definitely want to help
