“Our administration has been the strongest pro-life administration in Missouri history,” he said after signing House Bill 2634 into law. “We’ve ended all elective abortions in this state, approved new support for mothers, expecting mothers, and children, and, with this bill, ensured that we are not sending taxpayer dollars to abortion providers for any purpose.”
The law, which passed the state’s GOP-led Legislature in April, represents state lawmakers’ latest move to end Medicaid reimbursements and other funding for abortion providers after courts struck down their prior attempts. …

Father, thank you for what they have done in Missouri in defunding Planned Parenthood. May the voters be informed and not confused by the wording of the abortion amendment. Clear their vision and may pro-life voters step forward and vote against it. We praise your name.
My first little girl was stillborn at 8 months. I thought my heart would break. But then I had two more and now 4 grandchildren. I was praising and full of joy and gratitude when a breath flowed over me. Lift up the parents of the 400,000 whose children are now with Jesus.
Weep..for hours. Next, I’m standing in the throne room in fear and trembling to ask forgiveness. I hardly believe my own outrageous request.
My Spirit heard 70 times 7 and I Weep…
Then I’m reminded of Epsteins 8000 acre property in New Mexico that no one cares about…
SHOUT TO THE LORD
Let the whole world sing
Heaven bows down and the sea will roar
SING
Amen‼️
Thank you Father God for Missouri defending unborn children by using this administration to stand for life. I pray for peace over the administration and that the Spirit of the Lord to raise up people to pray against the war that will try to drain Missouri finances by lawsuits. Amen
