Our community is healthier, happier, and stronger because nutritious food is valued as a key component of health and available to all who need it. Volunteers package and deliver each meal, free of charge, to neighbors living with cancer, kidney/heart/lung disease, and other illnesses. In 2019, they prepared and delivered nearly 500,000 nutritious meals to 3,000 critically ill neighbors in Denver and Colorado Springs. The results? Improved health and well-being for those in need. Project Angel Heart’s meal recipients report better health, less stress, and more energy. They are better able to afford their health care and adhere to their prescribed health care regimen; and it’s easier for them to live independently in their homes. Groundbreaking research also shows that many Project Angel Heart meal recipients have lower health care costs and hospital readmission rates.

Frequently Asked Questions on Proposition 115 to End Late-Term Abortion (New Q’s Each Week) How are late abortions performed and are they “humane”? There are many different abortion techniques and remarkable procedure variability among physicians performing late-term abortions. This reflects the lack of consensus in the abortion community. In more candid moments, even abortion advocates sometimes characterize late abortion procedures on human fetuses as “morally abhorrent”. It is a form of intimate human violence which is unparalleled in medicine. The only reason that it persists is that the violence is hidden within the confines of the uterus. When the mother (and the broader public) are shielded from the reality of the carnage that is being inflicted on the human fetus, it is easier to rationalize its utility. Since there are no studies on the pain associated with late fetal abortion, to regard this as a painless, humane procedure is either wishful thinking or horribly misguided.

EXTRATERRITORIALITY OF RESTRICTIVE STATE ABORTION LAWS: STATES CAN ABORT PLANS TO ABORT AT HOME BUT NOT ABROAD The question of a state's authority to legislate abortion extraterritori- ally may appear largely academic because of the United States Supreme Court's holding in Roe v. Wade, in which the Court prohibited states from restricting abortions in the first trimester of pregnancy.' At first glance, the Supreme Court's recent decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey' appears to remove further the issue of extraterritorial abortion legislation from the states because the decision purportedly reaffirmed Roe.3 The Casey decision, however, does not preclude returning the abortion issue to the states. An extremely tenuous coalition of justices reaffirmed Roe, while a united group of dissenters argued that the Supreme Court should defer resolution of the abortion issue to state leg- islatures.4 Furthermore, Casey's "undue burden" standard allows states 1.

Volume Nineteen Spring 1990 Number Three STATE CONSTITUTIONAL REGULATION OF ABORTION Michael R. Braudest I. INTRODUCTION Among the most divisive legal and social issues in contemporary American society is the existence of a woman's right to obtain an abortion, as counterbalanced by the authority of states and munici­ palities to regulate and restrict that right. Between 1973 and 1989, the basic rules concerning the power of the states to prohibit or significantly restrict the performance of abortions were those an­ nounced by the Supreme Court in Roe v. Wade. I While the rules and analytic method adopted in Roe quickly became controversial, they nevertheless provided relatively clear guidance to women seeking abortions and to physicians willing to perform the procedure.

  • Abortion: the Five-Year Revolution and Its Impact
    ABORTION: THE FIVE-YEAR REVOLUTION AND ITS IMPACT The most pressing environmental problems in America and throughout the world are attributable in significant part to rapid and continuing increase in population. Many have looked to 1he reform of abortion laws as a means of controlling population growth. In January 1973 the United States Supreme Court, in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, abruptly overturned restrictive abortion laws throughout the United States. This Comment analyzes these decisions, particularly their public health and demographic aspects. The author concludes that the nation's medical facilities will readily adjust to the increased demand for abortions and that the primary effect of legalization will be an improvement in the quality of abortion operations, rather than an increase in the quantity of operationsperformed. In Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton,' two landmark decisions an- nounced January 22, 1973, the United States Supreme Court invali- dated abortion laws in 31 states and the District of Columbia and struck out critical provisions in the statutes of 14 others.2 The deci- sions marked the climax of over five years of intensive efforts to reform abortion statutes, a struggle characterized by rapid changes in public, medical, and judicial opinion on this controversial issue. Until 1967 the availability of legal abortions was severely re- stricted throughout the United States by state laws permitting abortion only when the mother's life was seriously threatened by continuation of pregnancy. Since 1967, 16 state legislatures have passed variations of a liberalized therapeutic abortion act which eased many of the re- strictions.3 In addition, legal attacks on both traditional and liberalized 1.
