News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in.

MEXICO CITY – Yelling “Yes to life, no to abortion!” Roman Catholic and anti-abortion groups marched Thursday in downtown Mexico City to protest bills to legalize abortion in Mexico, an issue that has divided the nation and drawn in conservative President Felipe Calderón.

United under the “We Are Life” movement, more than 500 people marched from the cathedral to the building of the Mexico City Congress, where lawmakers from the left and center are pushing for the reforms to allow abortion during the first 14 weeks of pregnancy.
