‘inhumane Procedures Behind Closed Doors’: Focus Put On ‘no Limits’ Abortion Industry In U.s. City

All across the United States the nation is becoming more and more divided, since the Supreme Court threw out the faulty and unconstitutional Roe v. Wade ruling from decades ago that created a so-called “right” to abortion.

Since that ruling returned regulation of abortion to the medical powers in each state, officials have taken two paths. One is for a regulation structure that recognizes the health and life of the mother, as well as the health and life of the unborn infant, and that has involved several standards.

The other has been a free-for-all regarding abortion, when unborn children can be killed, legally, up to the moment of birth.

One of those scenarios has developed in New Mexico, which has no restriction on abortion, allowing the unborn to be destroyed just before birth.

And more specifically, the industry has exploded in Albuquerque, where there now are six abortion businesses operating.

Those circumstances have led the American Center for Law and Justice, a prominent player in fights against the abortion industry, to begin a new investigation into four New Mexico operations that do abortions past 23 weeks.

The legal team noted, “Such late-term abortions raise grave moral, medical, and legal concerns.”

“New Mexico has no restrictions on abortion – it is available on demand up until birth. Further, New Mexico remains one of the few states in America that does not have a Born-Alive Infant Protection law. Such a law would ensure that if a child survives an abortion attempt, that child is recognized as a living human being under the law and must receive immediate lifesaving medical care. In the absence of this basic protection, the state’s permissiveness on late-term abortion raises deeply troubling questions about whether infants born alive during abortion procedures are being left to die – or worse,” the ACLJ reported.

Further triggering concern is the fact that a new abortion business, the Valley Abortion Group, recently opened and boasts of abortions throughout all three trimesters.

“This marks the sixth abortion center in the city, and it is operated under a radical ideological banner that promotes abortion as its sole service. No prenatal care, counseling, or adoption services are offered – only abortion. This facility is not an outlier, but rather the latest example of an unregulated and ideologically driven abortion industry operating with little accountability,” the ACLJ reported.

The facility, the ACLJ reported, charges as much as $17,500 for abortions, a price funded by taxpayers as the state pays for abortions through Medicaid.

Its work, the ACLJ said, now involves an “Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA) request” that was filed with the New Mexico Department of Health and the New Mexico Medical Board.

“Our objective is clear: to uncover whether these facilities are complying with the state’s reporting laws and to expose practices that may be violating the law or placing women and viable preborn children at risk,” the ACLJ said.

Requested were all records, including emails, provided to the CDC for the National Vital Statistics System that reference abortion, institutional records about the abortion businesses, records from attending physicians, records that reference an infant who survived an abortion and records of abortions past 24 weeks.

The report, compiled by ACLJ staff members John Monaghan and Olivia Summers, said, “The ACLJ will not stand by while the most vulnerable among us – preborn children – are subjected to inhumane procedures behind closed doors. We will continue to demand transparency, uphold the rule of law, and advocate for protections that recognize the sanctity of every human life.”
