Joe Pojman, director of the pro-life Texas Alliance for Life, criticized the Find Out PAC for attempting to “legislate from the bench” to push its abortion agenda after defeats in the legislature.

Referring to the abortion lobby group, Pojman told the American-Statesman in a recent interview, “They lost in the Legislature, so now they’re trying to get the court to legislate from the bench, and I think they’re misrepresenting that issue to voters. This PAC is lobbying the wrong body.”

Texas Alliance for Life and Texas Right to Life have both endorsed the Republican slate of state Supreme Court justices.

“What they’re promoting is far from freedom,” Texas Alliance for Life stated.“[I]t’s the most radical push for abortion on demand that we’ve ever seen at the expense of unborn babies’ lives.”

According to the pro-life organization, the DNC was marked by claims that pro-life laws are harming women by denying life-saving care, with a particular emphasis on the case of Amanda Zurawski.

Zurawski’s story, shared by the DNC, recounts how, at 18 weeks pregnant, her water broke. Zurawski was told that her life was at risk, but that the baby was still alive. She was instructed to wait for an abortion until the baby either died or she showed signs of severe infection. Her doctor’s delay in treatment caused Zurawski to develop sepsis, putting her life in great danger.

According to Texas Alliance for Life, Zurawki’s story has been “misrepresented” for over a year, and it is widely and incorrectly believed that Amanda Zurawski’s life was risked because of restrictions on abortion.

However, Texas Alliance for Life clarified that Texas law permits immediate abortions to protect a woman’s life, and that the delay in Zurawski’s case was a result of medical mismanagement rather than legal restrictions.
