Daylin Leach's Inappropriate Appearance at Villanova

  • As per the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference, "HB 818...prohibits the taxpayer supported insurance plans created under the federal health care exchange from covering elective abortions....Governor Corbett signed the bill into law on June 17."  By contrast, Pa Senator Daylin Leach is a pro-abortion extremist, who voted against HB 818His web site attempts to rationalize his heinous position: "When we say government money cannot and will not be used to pay for abortion services, we’re really saying we’re going to make abortion services unaffordable for women, very often leaving them in a desperate situation with no options. The broader policy of denying women access to these services is something we can’t have on our consciences."
  • The Pennsylvania Catholic Conference tells us that "A Marriage Protection Amendment to the Pennsylvania State Constitution may be the only way to preserve the definition of marriage as the union between one man and one woman."  By contrast, Daylin Leach is the Pa senate's prime sponsor of  SB719, "providing for same-sex marriages."
  • Montgomery County psychiatrist, Dr. Rick Fitzgibbons, maintains that: "Youth have the right to be provided informed consent about the serious medical and psychiatric illnesses, and risks, of the homosexual lifestyle. Pediatricians, mental health professionals, physicians, nurses and school counselors have a clear legal responsibility to do so, and parents, family members, educators, and clergy a grave moral responsibility" (Same-Sex Attractions in Youth and Their Right to Informed Consent, 5/21/12).  By contrast, Daylin Leach is one of the five Pa senators who introduced SB 872, "Prohibiting mental health professionals from engaging in sexual orientation change efforts with an individual under 18 years of age."
  • The Pennsylvania Catholic Conference tells us that Pennsylvania HB 300/SB 300 "is intolerant and prejudiced against people of faith."  You guessed it!  Daylin Leach is one of the 25 Pa senators who introduced SB 300.
  • Oh, and by the way, Daylin Leach was one of five Pa senators to introduce SB 1182, "The Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Act."
