Amy O’Donnell, directora de comunicación de Texas Alliance for Life, dijo que el resultado del estudio no es ninguna sorpresa porque la tasa de natalidad en Texas ha aumentado después de la aprobación de la ley y que por lo tanto las muertes de bebés aumentan también.

“Perder a un hijo es difícil, pero abortar a ese niño no elimina la pérdida; le quita al bebé no nacido y a la familia tiempo juntos, por corto que sea”, dijo en una declaración. “La vida de los bebés a los que se les diagnostica discapacidades fatales o limitantes vale y merecen ser tratados con dignidad”.

Abortion opponents say that fetuses, regardless of a fatal diagnosis, “deserve every chance at life,” said Amy O’Donnell, the communications director for Texas Alliance for Life.

“It is heart-wrenching for any parent to lose a child, and our sympathies go out to families who have experienced such loss,” she said. “Nevertheless, no disease, disability or disorder justifies abortion.”

Amy O’Donnell, communications director for the Texas Alliance for Life, said the results of the study are not surprising, as birth rates in Texas have increased after the passage of abortion bans and infant deaths would therefore increase as well.

“Losing a child is difficult, but aborting that child doesn’t take away the loss, and it robs the unborn child and family of time together, however short that may be,” she said in a statement. “The lives of babies diagnosed with fatal or life-limiting disabilities have value and worth and are worthy of being treated with dignity.”
