{S} ince the end of Roe v. Wade, the pro-abortion zealots in the Biden administration have waged a spiteful war against pregnancy resource centers across the country.

The latest salvo is a proposed rule that would cut off Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds to pro-life pregnancy resource centers. “Programs that only or primarily provide pregnancy counseling to women only after they become pregnant likely do not meet the reasonable person standard,” Biden’s new proposal states.

The glaring hypocrisy in the proposed rule is revealed in its selective focus on pregnancy resource centers, while turning a blind eye to other organizations such as Planned Parenthood, the country’s largest abortion provider. Despite Planned Parenthood spending more than $1 million in TANF funds in 2018, it is curiously spared from the same scrutiny and demand for special justifications imposed on pregnancy resource centers.

This is blatant government targeting, and it is wholly unconstitutional.

Unfortunately, the TANF proposal is also just a part of a wider assault on the pro-life movement by the Biden administration. Since the overturning of Roe, the Biden administration has gone out of its way to circumvent state laws banning abortion while slow-walking investigations into the attacks on pregnancy resource centers and pro-life groups across the country.

Over the past 18 months, at least 88 pregnancy resource centers have been attacked, vandalized, and firebombed by left-wing extremists. The advocacy group I founded, Advancing American Freedom, has repeatedly asked the DOJ to explain what steps it is taking to bring these domestic terrorists to justice, but to no avail. After receiving no response, we have now filed suit against the DOJ to find out why the Biden administration refuses to hold violent leftists accountable for their crimes.

But violent radicals aren’t the only ones attacking our pregnancy resource centers — some of our elected members of Congress are fueling the violence with hateful rhetoric. Senator Elizabeth Warren accused pregnancy resource centers of “torturing” expecting mothers, she proposed fining them $100,000, and she demanded that they be shut down nationwide. These outlandish attacks only add fuel to the fires of rage that have been burning since the Left lost Roe.

The escalating attacks on pregnancy resource centers reveal the Left’s lack of understanding of their essential nature. Pregnancy resource centers do nothing but shower expecting mothers with love, support, and hope. They provide an array of invaluable services, including job training, parenting and prenatal education, free ultrasounds, pregnancy tests, counseling, baby clothes, diapers, and material support. Every year, hundreds of thousands of desperate women who are often afraid and alone find support they would get nowhere else.

As the Biden administration continues to persecute these centers of hope based on nothing but a poisonous left-wing ideology, the real victims are the vulnerable women and unborn children who stand to lose access to vital care and assistance. The unjust targeting of pregnancy resource centers jeopardizes the most vulnerable among us, and makes our country a more callous, less caring nation.

I’ve long believed that you can judge a nation by how it treats its most vulnerable citizens: the elderly, the infirm, and the unborn. For America to be a just and compassionate nation, we must end the Left’s war on pregnancy resource centers, starting by blocking the Biden administration’s misguided TANF rule.
