To celebrate New York state’s passage of a new law that allows for late-term abortions, Governor Andrew Cuomo ordered that the spire at One World Trade Center be lit up pink:

It’s a bad law:
New York just approved a new law:
* allowing abortions UP TO BIRTH
* no protections for babies BORN ALIVE after botched abortions
* non-doctors can kill babies in abortions
* a baby is NOT CONSIDERED A HUMAN BEING under law until birth
* prohibits ANY pro-life laws— LifeNews.com (@LifeNewsHQ) January 23, 2019
And we do mean he literally ordered the building to light up pink:
Some people might say that lighting the World Trade Center pink to celebrate the passage of the Reproductive Health Act is a form of gender stereotyping. pic.twitter.com/e3l9iaj8Xf

Other landmarks throughout the state were also lit pink, per the governor’s directive:

Planned Parenthood head Dr. Leana Wen cheered the move:
In the face of relentless attacks, we thank @NYGovCuomo and the New York State Legislature for taking immediate action and showing what states can do to protect women’s health and rights. This law makes crystal clear that abortion is standard medical care. https://t.co/h1o2778FBQ

“Catholic”:
The Governor gleefully celebrating the aborting of unborn children potentially all the way through all 9 months of pregnancy claims to be Catholic. https://t.co/sOO8ZwT1KR

Makes you think:
Late term abortion is now legal in New York. Capital punishment is illegal. Which means it is only okay to give lethal injection to infants. If that seems rational or moral to you, you're a psychopath.

And we also have a problem with the WTC being used for political purposes:
This is a disgusting use of what was built in memoriam for the victims of a horrific terrorist attack. Shame on everyone who was a part of this ghoulish "celebration". https://t.co/95fFgrbf2v
