Black lawmakers may seek Sanction of Congressman for ruing high Abortion Rate in Black
Community
WASHINGTON D.C. (Texas Insider Report) I hear a lot in this institution from minority leaders about how their communities are targeted said Wisconsin Republican Cong. Sean Duffy offering the Black Lives Matter movements efforts to draw attention to police violence against blacks as an example. But what I dont hear them talk about is how their communities are targeted in abortion said Duffy who is under fire from the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) for his remarks on the House floor expressing concern about the high abortion rate in the black community. As reported by the Hill during a House floor speech Duffy cited statistics showing high abortion rates in African-American populations and suggested black lawmakers arent doing enough to reduce them. This is what Duffy said:
I hear a lot in this institution from minority leaders about how their communities are targeted said Duffy (right) offering the Black Lives Matter movements efforts to draw attention to police violence against blacks as an example.
But what I dont hear them talk about is how their communities are targeted in abortion.
My liberal friends Congressional Black Caucus members talk about fighting for the defenseless the hopeless and the downtrodden. There is no one more hopeless and voiceless than an unborn baby but their silence is deafening. I cant hear them.
Where are they standing up for their communities advocating and fighting for their right to life? he said.
Rep. Gwen Moore (D-WI) a
Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) member called Duffys remarks
offensive while CBC Chairman Rep. G.K. Butterfield (D-NC) called them
disgusting.
The CBC is now
considering whether to submit a privileged resolution in the House to condemn Duffy for his remarks.
Offering a privileged resolution to criticize a colleague is highly unusual but CBC members say the abortion comments amounted to an attack on the Black Caucus making a formal criticism of Duffy fair game.
But Duffy who said Tuesday he stands by his comments said the resolution talk is a distraction and he was

the one who suffered a character attack.
Members of the
Project 21 Black Leadership Network however however are rising to Cong. Duffys defense saying there is nothing to condemn. They say Duffy is to be commended for his concern for black babies.
The Congressional Black Caucus further makes itself irrelevant and a joke said Project 21s Christopher Arps a St. Louis political consultant and the founder of Move-On-Up.org.
Its so bad that in 2014 blacks in New York City and Georgia had more abortions than live births. Now the CBC wants to condemn Rep. Duffy for telling the truth that the CBC doesnt seem to care by their silence.
It seems theyd rather see little black babies aborted than anger the abortion lobby. Most black people have no earthly idea that blacks have the highest amount of abortions per capita than any other ethnic group in this country.
There is no doubt that abortion providers like Planned Parenthood have cornered the market on aborting black babies
said Project 21s Jerome Hudson a Georgia native and writer for Breitbart.com and other venues.
Non-Hispanic white women account for about 38.5 of the population if you divide the number of all non-Hispanic whites by two. Using census and CDC data that 38.5 of white women accounted for 36.8 of abortions in 2010.
Conversely Hudson continued non-Hispanic black women make up about 6.6 of the population. Thats the black population divided by two. Using census and CDC data non-Hispanic black women accounted for 35.7 of the abortions performed in 2010. That is a horrific disparity especially considering less than that 6.6 consists of black women of actual childbearing age. These are facts the Congressional Black Caucus is committed to ignoring.
I commend Sean Duffy for his comments and for his willingness to recognize that the 21st century holocaust -- subsidized abortion on demand -- targets all vulnerable babies regardless of color said Project 21 Chairman Horace Cooper (right) a former U.S. House majority leader legal counsel and Virginia legal analyst.
Instead of a resolution of disapproval the CBC should stand with the pro-life community and Rep. Duffy. Unborn babies are the most innocent most defenseless category of victim imaginable -- and black babies are increasingly the most obvious targets.
Even though blacks are only 13 of the population nearly 40 of our babies are destroyed in the womb.
