To the editor:

Where are the Christian leaders and pastors of all denominations in publicly denouncing the passage of the Protection of Reproductive Options Act by the Minnesota Senate on Jan. 28, 2023?
Republicans unsuccessfully tried to amend the bill 35 times, including banning of abortion if the child is not the parent's preferred sex or to provide pain medication to the child during the abortion process.
Once again, as the church goes, so goes the nation.
