…. A MAJOR HEARING ABOUT “ABORTION PILL REVERSAL” …. IN BUFFALO THIS THURSDAY…..

 

A number of pro-life organizations are suing New York’s Attorney General. They argue that threats of legal actions by Letitia James and her office will seek to unconstitutionally silence their advice to clients who start on Mifepristone to chemically end a pregnancy, but then have second thoughts. The state sent letters to the pregnancy care center, threatening prosecution if they provide information about abortion-drug reversal processes to people who visit their clinics.

The Alliance Defending Freedom law group represents those centers and sought an injunction against the Attorney General. That hearing was today (August 15, 2024). Prior to this court hearing, Family Life news producer Greg Gillispie got a preview from ADF attorney Gabriella McIntyre.

 

The ADF statement about the case is here from their website ADFLegal.org.

 

Family Life News also reached out to the Attorney General’s media team, offering to interview James or her spokesperson.

This podcast post will be updated when we have their response.

It’s “Staycation Destinations” on Family Life

This week, we give you a radio tour of the Theodore Roosevelt Inaugural National Historic Site

In 1901, President McKinley — and thousands of others — were in Buffalo for the Pan-American Exposition, a world’s fair celebrating the promise of the dawning century. There, an assassin shot the president, who died about a week later. Vice President Theodore Roosevelt was rushed by stagecoach to Buffalo, and at the home of friend and attorney Ansley Wilcox was administered the oath of office to become America’s 26th president.

The Wilcox home is now an official historic site operated by the National Park Service. The museum commemorates the 1901 exposition, the dawn of new identities for the United States, and the life and work of this “Rough Rider” President.

TR Site Executive Director Spencer Morgan talks in this podcast about the exhibits and stories visitors will find.

The JELL-O Gallery – Le Roy NY

It’s “Staycation Destinations” on Family Life

The hometown of Jell-O brand gelatin continues to celebrate the century-plus of fun, wiggly food.

The Le Roy Historical Society intentionally chose a more-fitting name for its museum — this is an art gallery. As you’ll hear in this podcast, some of the most prominent displays at the Jell-O Gallery are the forms of colorful and vibrant marketing which introduced the product to the American public, and demonstrated the ease of making instant Jell-O … so simple even a child could do it.

Listen as well for other parts of the history, and other parts of the displays which focus on vehicles and a wider view of Le Roy’s history.

The Jell-O Gallery is at 23 East Main Street in Le Roy, which is about halfway between Batavia and Rochester.

 

Here is the winner of their 2024 Photo Contest on the Gallery’s Facebook page:

 

“Staycation Destinations” airs Fridays on Family Life during the Noon Report and 5 O’Clock Report.

Each week, all summer long, we map out a unique opportunity for you to discover somewhere unique, in New York or Pennsylvania — fairly close to home, and fairly affordable.

Previous destinations are linked from www.FamilyLife.org/newspodcasts.
