Congressman Pearce Calls on Sessions to Open NM Investigation

BREAKING: 
Congressman Pearce Calls On U.S. Attorney General to Investigate University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center and Southwestern Women's Options Late-Term Abortion Business

ALBUQUERQUE: As New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas allows valid claims to expire daily, Congressman Steve Pearce issued a statment yesterday calling on U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions to investigate Southwestern Women's Options (SWWO) late-term abortion business and University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (UNMHSC).  Pearce cited the violations of law identified by the Select Panel on Infant Lives' criminal referrals for both UNMHSC and SWWO. The Panel found numerous violations of both state and federal law in the harvesting of aborted infant body parts for research between SWWO and UNMHSC. From Pearce's letter to the U.S Attorney General:

"We formally request your office conduct an investigation on UNMHSC and SWWO practices related to the Panel's findings... We also ask that your office prosecutes, to the fullest extent of the law, any violations that are uncovered. It is entirely unacceptable for these institutions to continually violate 42 U.S. Code § 289g-2 as well as other state and federal laws, especially in-light of the interstate commerce that is generated from these abortions and the research that is conducted with the subsequent fetal tissue."

New Mexico Alliance for Life (NMAFL) consulted with the Panel and provided thousands of documents resulting in the two criminal referrals issued for UNMHSC and SWWO.  NMAFL has also raised the issue of claims involving baby brains, hearts and skin expiring by NM Attorney General Hector Balderas, protecting the abortion industry over women and unborn children. 

"It has been over a year since NM Attorney General Hector Balderas received the criminal referrals from Congress  evidencing massive violations of the law--yet he has done nothing but allow over one hundred claims to expire," said Elisa Martinez NMAFL executive director. "We will continue working with Congressman Pearce on these issues and applaud his stand in demanding justice on behalf of New Mexico women and unborn children who have been left behind by Hector Balderas."

WHAT YOU CAN DO

HECTOR BALDERAS: DENIES JUSTICE TO OVER 100 WOMEN

Earlier this week, NM Attorney General Hector Balderas swftly and almost instantly announced he is suing the President over DACA: "I filed suit against President Trump and his administration to protect DACA."

If Hector Balderas has time to sue the President for political purposes, he has time to do the job he was hired by New Mexicans to do : uphold the law and defend the citizens of this state.

INDICT TODAY: Contact the New Mexico Office of the Attorney General and tell him to issue an indictment for the congressional criminal referrals of UNM Health Science Center and Southwestern Women's Options.  He has now allowed over 100 Criminal claims to expire since last year.  Tell him to stop denying justice to NM women  and unborn children.  If he has time to play political games and sue the President, he must act on the criminal referrals NOW.
