Daily News | Anti-abortion activists drop lawsuit against Abortion Liberation Fund
Two Philadelphia residents have dropped a lawsuit they filed against the city and Mayor Jim Kenney in, which claimed a six-figure donation to the Abortion Liberation Fund of PA violated state law.
Elicia Gonzalez, executive director of ALF-PA, emphasized in a statement the difficulty in obtaining access to safe abortions, even before the U.S. Supreme Court eliminated the constitutional right to an abortion in June — particularly for young people, people of color and those living in poverty. Just two weeks after the announcement, the Kuhars — who are Philly residents — filed their lawsuit, backed by a conservative law firm.
The Kuhars argued that by using cash from its general fund, Philadelphia wouldn’t be able to prove it didn’t use state or state-appropriated federal funds to make the donation.
