  1. What is really sad is, that there is an actual Business whose very Name actually says that they are there to help New Mothers to be BUT, that is a total Lie. They don’t care about helping a Pregnant Woman to be the best Mother she can be, they only care about Abortions so PLEASE, Sen. Eric Grall and Rep. Berny Jacques, create a Bill that will stop ALL Tax Dollar Funding going to all Abortion Clinics.

    This Bill to Ban “a historical monument or memorial” from being “removed, damaged, or destroyed” should have been made and passed about 5 Years ago since most have already been removed. Maybe it will save the rest.
