Charmaine Yoest — the former head of Americans United for Life — will be running public affairs at HHS.
Yoest opposes birth control like the IUD, which she thinks has “life-ending properties” (it doesn’t.) http://theatln.tc/2qnio7y
She wants to ban abortion altogether, no exceptions for cases of rape, incest, or health of the mother. http://nyti.ms/2qntNnV
Trump will appoint Charmaine Yoest — an anti-abortion leader who once said abortions cause cancer — to a post at HHS http://bit.ly/2ppAwyp
Yoest’s “end goal isn’t to make abortion safer. She wants to make the procedure illegal.” http://rewire.link/2oFxeKr
