Gov. Whitmer Slashes Pro-Life Funding
Gov. Whitmer Slashes Pro-Life Funding
As many states take steps to further protect the unborn, Michigan’s governor is actively working against them.
From Breitbart. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) used her line veto power Wednesday to eliminate state support for adoption agencies, pregnancy facilities, and maternity homes proposed as alternatives to abortion.
Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.
Before signing the $76 billion state budget, Whitmer cancelled a $2 million adoption tax credit, $10 million to promote adoption “as an alternative to abortion,” $3 million for a maternal navigator pilot program, and $700,000 for the Real Alternatives pregnancy program, which promotes “childbirth, alternatives to abortion, and grief counseling….”
A staunch supporter of Roe v. Wade and a right to abortion-on-demand, Whitmer said she is “pulling out all the stops” to enshrine abortion rights into Michigan state law, which helps explain her hostility to programs designed to offer women choices to abortion….
“Today, I filed a motion urging the court to immediately take up my lawsuit to protect abortion in Michigan,” Whitmer said on June 24. “We need to clarify that under Michigan law, access to abortion is not only legal, but constitutionally protected. The urgency of the moment is clear—the Michigan court must act now….”
Whitmer’s vetoes “support only one option for women in a crisis pregnancy — the deadly choice of abortion,” said State Rep. Thomas Albert, chair of the House Appropriations Committee….

…. And th battle rages on !!
Father this day we occupy th gap in th heavens created by Satans tactics. We lift before your throne th souls of th children this Governor is seeking to kill. May these bills she introduced be struck null and void. Holy Spirit fill the chambers of Michigans courts as this process develops .
We unite in prayer in our beloved and powerful name of Jesus ! You are not only our savior and lord but our battlefield General as well !!!
Lord, when I hear these words, it is clear that these people have lost their senses, their souls being sold out to evil. Lord, deliver them from spiritual suicide. Show this governor her lack of wisdom, love, and Biblical principles. Reveal Yourself to her in such a way that she falls to her knees and cries out for forgiveness and salvation. Let Thy Kingdom come and Thy will be done in the state of Michigan regarding this matter. Besides, Lord, You can supply the needs of organizations that protect the lives of the yet to be born and for those born who need a family. Thank You that You are great! Thank You that You will act on behalf of Your glorious Name. Amen.
🙏 Governor Whitmer’s stoney heart would become a heart of flesh that God will use.
enshrine: To cherish as sacred; deify, enthrone, glorify
cherish: To protect and aid; adore, worship
Ms. Witmer’s aim to “enshrine abortion rights” should be challenged to the highest earthly court. I no longer call ours supreme as there is One and that Supreme Court is God’s. Jesus loves children and cautions, “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in Heaven always see the face of my Father in Heaven.” Matthew 18:10
Dear Heavenly Father, I know You can forgive us but we must first repent and turn from this enshrined evil. Your word says, although You overlooked the ignorance of earlier times, You now command all people everywhere to repent. I appeal to You in Your Supreme Court, to hear the cries of the unborn and say, “NO MORE.” Lord, do not stay far away, You are their strength; come quickly and help them. I pray You will bring these precious ones from the womb and make them secure at their mother’s breasts. I pray ALL the families in America will bow down before You and ALL will proclaim Your righteousness (even) to people yet to be born—all that You have done. I pray the Blood of Jesus Christ over each decision, plan and prayer offered in defense of children, unborn and born. In Christ we have redemption through His blood. And only in Christ are our sins forgiven thanks be to God! Amen
Acts 17:30 Although God overlooked the ignorance of earlier times, He now commands all people everywhere to repent.
The Psalm of the Cross; https://www.biblehub.com/psalms/22.htm
Ephesians 1:7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace.
As a former resident of Michigan this… wounds my heart, and scorches my mind. I will continue to pray that the church in Michigan becomes the ‘Wolverine Ecclesia’. Use its SPIRITUAL weapons to defeat evil this November.
Father God it seems that the Gov.of Michigan (Whitmer) is on a rampage to make sure Abortion is a top priority to her. I pray that her hardened heart of not understanding about the constitution does not give a right to commit murder, she is totally wrong. Her hostility is coming from a controlled demonic spirit called Satan, I lift up prayer that calls for a binding of this spirit that comes from Baal that wants all children to be sacrificed I decree that we stand against wokeness, the occult and every evil attempt to destroy Babies, I pray that Gods Holy Spirit covers the safety of the children and their life. I am asking God to void this lawsuit the Gov. Has filed with the courts to enshrine only murder of the unborn babies. I pray this deranged attitude will be taken into effect by the courts and if they go along with her plan that they will be committing murder as well. I pray for a biblical ruling from their hearts to be the prime motivation of their decisions. I pray she visits her words on her website where she boasts the title of Mom! that these words of mom contradict what she is proposing of wanting murders of other children. I lift up my concerns to our Father that her heart becomes pure not filled with hate and that she realizes that if she removes choices for other women to become a mom is SIN. I pray for all darkness be removed from her mind so she can see the sin she is in acting upon Michigan. God I place this in your hands I that your will be done to save the babies in Mi.
I can only wonder at the hearts of those who want to murder, by torture, babies in the womb. And then for this governor to basically outlaw any other choice but murder, is beyond evil and wicked. We must diligently and fervently pray for her to have a heart change and come to Jesus. Pray that God will use her for an instrument for good and not evil. “God is able” II Cor. 9:8 and will do according to His will, as we pray for His will to be done. I never read anything that says, ladies make your choice before having sex. Or have I heard anymore that PP provides prevention of pregnancy help. Only murder is sanctioned, and how evil is that. One of the protesters had a sign that said, “Abortion is health care” how bizzare is that? May God grant that we lift Him up and consider His ways. Repent America!
