Aurora Council to Vote on Parental-Notification Resolution

 

The Aurora, Ill., City Council will vote next week on a resolution urging the state to require doctors to inform parents or guardians before performing an abortion on a minor.

The state parental-notification law was passed in 1995, but has been held up in the courts. A judge is reviewing the case.

Meanwhile, life advocates continue to gather around the $7.5 million abortion clinic that recently opened in the Chicago suburb.

"As long as Planned Parenthood remains open, we will be out there and in here, praying and protesting," Eric Scheidler, communications director for the Pro-Life Action League, told aldermen. "We're here to stay."
