Pro-life groups concerned about Trump’s NIH director

Pro-life groups denounced comments by National Institutes for Health (NIH) Director Francis Collins, who defended research using flesh from unborn children.

Pro-life groups are criticizing National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director Francis Collins after saying research using fetal tissue will continue to be a staple of the organization’s research.

Fetal tissue research “will continue to be a mainstay,” Collins told the NIH Advisory Committee on Dec. 13, Science Magazine reported….

“Collins’ actions are inconsistent with the pro-life policies of this administration and with the consensus of Americans who oppose entangling taxpayer dollars with abortion,” March for Life President Jeanne Mancini said in a Tuesday statement.
