Speaking of drugs, the party that brought us the ad campaign that links marijuana sales and terrorism now have a new plan :

Texas approved one of the nation’s most sweeping abortion “counseling” laws Wednesday, requiring doctors, among other things, to warn women that abortion might lead to breast cancer — a correlation that does not exist, according to the American Cancer Society and federal researchers.
. . .
“They don’t care what science says,” said Claudia D. Stravato, chief executive officer of Planned Parenthood of Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle. “It’s like talking to the Flat Earth Society.”

The bill’s author, state Rep. Frank Corte Jr., a San Antonio-area Republican, said he called the bill the “Women’s Right to Know Act.”
. . .
Finally, the law requires doctors to offer women information warning them of the possibility that abortion can increase the risk of breast cancer. Only Mississippi and Minnesota have similar laws on the books.

In February, the National Cancer Institute — the federal government’s cancer research organization — asked more than 100 of the world’s experts to review more than 30 studies that have been conducted and attempt to resolve the issue. Their conclusion: Having an abortion “does not increase a woman’s subsequent risk of developing breast cancer.”
. . .
The trouble is that among the vast majority of physicians, it’s not disputed, said Dr. Bernard Rosenfeld, a Houston physician who performs abortions. “There is absolutely no medical validity to this,” Rosenfeld said Wednesday night. “Nobody seriously believes this.”

It’s disgusting to think that the anti-abortion crusaders are willing to resort to terrifying women into not having abortions. Maybe we should push for a “Voters Right to Know Act” which requires pre-election counseling to possible voters that makes them aware of the links between voting for Republicans and being a heartless asshole.
