Google is being warned by Republican attorney generals about possible legal action if it bows to pro-lifers leftists’ pressure to kill them.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares and Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron are leading a group of 17 Republican attorneys general across the U.S. who are uniting against Google’s reported censorship of pro-life center search results.
Democrat legislators and the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a leftist group, demanded that Google remove its activists censors from pro-lifers. Daily Wire reports that Google was warned by the attorneys general in a letter about potential legal actions. The pro-abortion leftists have called pregnancy centers “anti-abortion fake clinics.”
The letter noted that some politicians now “seek to wield Google’s immense market power by pressuring the company to discriminate against pro-life crisis pregnancy centers.” Google’s influence and reach would make pro-abortion censorship a “grave assault on the principle of free speech,” the attorneys general wrote.
“As the chief legal officers of our respective States, we the undersigned Attorneys General are extremely troubled by this gallingly un-American political pressure,” the letter said.
The attorneys general called it “unconscionable” for congressional Democrats to call for the federal government to shut down pro-life centers, noting that crisis pregnancy centers provided $266 million worth of free services to almost 2 million clients in 2019. These services include post-abortive and recovery counseling as well as baby clothes and car seats. They also provide ultrasounds and pregnancy tests.
MRC Free Speech America previously highlighted 67 cases of pro-abortion calls for violence on social media against pro-life clinics and others following the Supreme Court’s overturning of the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling. Social media sites allowed some of the most violent posts to continue unchecked.
Google’s refusal to comply to the leftist demand for censorship of abortion was suggested by its attorneys general. “We wish to make this very clear to Google and the other market participants that it dwarfs: If you fail to resist this [pro-abortion] political pressure, we will act swiftly to protect American consumers from this dangerous axis of corporate and government power.”
