What a CreepSeason 22, Episode 8Crisis Pregnancy CentersWhat started as a bunch of small, locally-run crisis pregnancy centers to discourage women from getting abortions has grown into an anti-abortion movement with political clout and government funding. These centers and the organizations that run them have only grown more powerful since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last year and removed abortion rights protections. If you’re against abortion and want to encourage women to carry their pregnancies to term, you’re within your right to open a clinic that encourages that. But these crisis pregnancy centers spread lies and practice delay tactics to trick women into having babies.
