Who’s really ‘pro-life?’

Kudos to Beth Williams (5/2, Letters, “Shocking anti-abortion signs”). She is truly pro-life. She doesn’t “condone abortions.” She fosters children.

Instead of putting their energy into the “anti,” why not go for the “pro?” Spend our tax dollars on reproductive health education instead of putting Planned Parenthood on trial again. Planned Parenthood provides this education and much more.

Spend our tax dollars helping foster parents who take in the growing number of children with special needs instead of cutting funds for these programs.

These “pro-lifers” seem to care only for a baby while it’s in the womb. We have many unwanted, unloved and sometimes abused children that are already born.

It’s so unfortunate that to some, being “pro-life” is really only about being anti-abortion.
