Pro-Life Pregnancy Centers have free speech!

At PJ Media Tyler O'Neill tells about a Supreme Court decision today. PJ's headline: Supreme Court Strikes Down Law Turning Pro-Life Pregnancy Centers Into 'Abortion Referral Agencies'
...Other pro-life leaders emphasized the radical nature of the pro-abortion movement. "Today's decision protecting pregnancy centers from having to advertise or refer for abortion reveals the extremism of the abortion industry," Ashley McGuire, senior fellow at The Catholic Association, said in a statement.

"These centers exist to offer women a clear alternative to abortion and the abortion lobby bullied them all the way to the Supreme Court because they could not tolerate authentic choice for women. From the start, the case was a free-speech no-brainer," McGuire declared. "Our First Amendment right to freedom of speech not only protects the right to speak out, it protects the right not to speak. Compelled speech is the doing of authoritarian regimes, not free and flourishing democracies."

There is also an article in the New York Times about this but I don't recommend it. It is mostly just pathetic whining about McConnell holding up the appointment of Judge Garland and now we have Judge Gorsuch boo hoo!
