Law would require pregnancy centers to post signs if they don't offer abortions

The Baltimore City Council OKs legislation forcing crisis centers to notify if they won't provide abortion or birth-control referrals. The mayor can veto the law.

Crisis pregnancy centers that don't offer abortions or birth-control referrals would have to post notices saying they exclude those options under legislation approved Monday night by the Baltimore City Council.

The measure, which must still get a final ruling from the city's mayor, is thought to be the first of its kind in the nation.

"The passage of this piece of legislation may serve as serious encouragement to those who would like to see our organizations saddled with more laws and restrictions" said Carol A. Clews, executive director of the Center for Pregnancy Concerns, a nonprofit anti-abortion organization that receives donations from religious groups and has operated in Baltimore for 30 years.

So, how do you like the taste of your own medicine? You know...since people like you wanted to do the same thing to organizations like Planned Parenthood?
