But I think it's important to look at the individual CPCs. For a CPC


that bills itself as a general women's health clinic with misleading implications that they provide all pregnancy services including abortions, the remedy shouldn't be to force them to tell women about other abortion resources, it should be to force them to disclose the (limited) scope and mission of the clinic.

The Birthline/Lifeline Pregnancy Care Program is very upfront about their scope and mission. It "...promotes the sanctity of life and offers pregnancy care services at its pregnancy care center locations" and "alternatives to pregnancy terminations and more". It would be ludicrous to require this facility which is part of the Catholic Diocese of Palm Beach, to counsel women on abortion resources.

So this issue to me isn't that CPCs aren't offering abortion counseling, it's that some (many/most even) are misleading women about their scope and women may not realize they're getting pregnancy advice from an anti-abortion organization. That's clearly not the case with the Catholic church facility. So force the sneakier ones to disclose their mission, don't force them give advice and counsel that goes completely contrary to their mission.
