Maryland governor announces $15 million in abortion funding

On Monday, Maryland Governor Wes Moore announced more funding to advance abortion in the state.

Totaling $15.6 million, the funding includes a $10.6 million grant for Maryland’s Abortion Care Clinical Training Program at the University of Maryland, Baltimore, and an additional $5 million budget proposal to increase Medicaid provider reimbursement for abortion. The Medicaid budget proposal will first need to be approved by both the House and Senate.

According to Maryland Matters, the abortion training funding will be released by the Maryland Department of Health, which says it will be used to “initially conduct a statewide needs assessment to understand the inequities in access to abortion care in Maryland, develop and coordinate a robust statewide training system in collaboration with partners, operate the hospital-based clinical site, and distribute program funds to participating organizations.”

Jessica Lee, an associate professor of medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, said that the money will allow the school to train abortionists so that abortion will be more readily available in rural areas.

“Access to reproductive health care is a fundamental right,” said Moore in a statement. “Today, we take another big step forward to protect the health, well-being, and rights of Marylanders – and we will keep working together to ensure that Maryland remains a safe haven for reproductive care.”

Despite this statement, there is no ‘fundamental right’ to the direct and intentional homicide of a preborn child, as that child is either deprived of the nutrients it needs to survive, pulled apart limb by limb, or poisoned in its mother’s womb. There is no right for any person to kill another innocent human in the name of “freedom.” Killing is not reproductive health care.

In his time in office, Moore has established himself as a big proponent of abortion. On his very first day of office in 2023, he released funds under the Abortion Care Access Act which covers abortion training, among other things. The funds had been withheld under the leadership of former Governor Larry Hogan. He has also signed several bills that expand and protect abortion in the state, and he has taken steps to promote a ballot measure that would enshrine the “right” to abortion in the state’s constitution.

I wonder if anyone has told the gov that he is killing thousands of potential demonocrapt voters?

Maryland tried multiple times to assassinate President-Elect Lincoln when Lincoln toured Maryland to try to keep them neutral.

No surprise they'd have no qualms against assassinating babies too.

We know some of that ‘blood money’ is going to wind up in some corrupted hands in the cookie jar. Freak state corruptions. Can’t spell Maryland without MAL - which means bad in Spanish.

I am so glad that I moved from the Orwellian state of Maryland to the free state of Florida

Men can enjoy unprotected sex without fear of romance, commitment or financial responsibility!

They don’t care. They’re bringing in thousands of new voters from the third world every day.

He doesn’t care - he’ll be re-elected anyway.

(Hogan was a fluke here.)

What a way for an African-America Governor
to celebrate Black History Month.

Send them some buses full of illegals. That seems to divert funding in other states.

To: stanne & Morgana,

Yes, I weep for my state, prioritizing killing innocent unborn babies.

Turning 64 May 29 and born & raised here.

Totally disenfranchised as MAGA save for rep. Dr. Andy Harris in the first CD.

Wish I could move, but for family and health reasons need to stay put.

We went through md looking for a place to settle. It was an option. I took a look at the property on the Main Street multi story prime real estate big brass lettering dept of education.

They think they’re some kind of entitled royalty there. They sure weren’t going to be open to parents’ ideas about educating their own children

We took off out of there

________________________

I don’t blame you.

However, it’s heartbreaking for me because I grew in a much better Maryland.

From my early teens in the 1970s to about 2004, I enjoyed countless enjoyable trips down into Baltimore a.k.a. ‘Charm City.” Most were to the old Memorial Stadium to attend Orioles baseball games and professional wrestling matches at the arena. I always looked forward to walking around the streets, sitting in Hopkins Plaza, etc.

Now, you couldn’t pay me to venture into that hellhole and take my life in my hands!!!

Heck, I now even hesitate to walk the streets of the smaller towns in my own county (day or night).
The same crime wave has spread into our suburbs.

Now, after NeverTrumper Governor Larry HOGan (who’s now launched a US Senate campaign), we are stuck with an acclaimed Progressive Governor Wes Moore (who’s touted as a future POTUS candidate).

I do hope and pray, that in my later years, my state will turn around and become a safe, welcoming place again.
