We encourage our government to continue to inspect and regulate the other seven abortion facilities located in Louisiana." "We rejoice that this facility, which has exploited women and taken the lives of so many unborn children, can no longer operate in Louisiana. We hope it remains that way," Clapper finished. ### We will continue to update you on this developing story.
