Sex trafficking of children and adults across the US
In preparing for Super Bowl Sunday on February 5, 2012, Governor Mitch Daniels told legislators to tighten the state’s law on human trafficking. He warned that the Super Bowl is the type of event that attracts sexual predators.

Slutwalkers focused on wrong aspect of rape
When Slutwalkers paraded bare-breasted on the streets of many cities, focusing on unclothed or barely dressed women not inviting rape, they should have been protesting that rape was being under reported because of an archaic definition of sexual assault used by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that was created over 80 years ago.

Tax breaks offered to create new jobs
Employers are being tempted with tax breaks by governors who think the incentive will bring more jobs to their states. These include lowering taxes on individual income, commercial and industrial property, utilities, and energy used in manufacturing.

Planned Parenthood targeted by ProLife groups loses Komen Foundation funding
The Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation has announced that it will no longer provide funds for breast cancer screenings and prevention to Planned Parenthood. The Foundation has recently been the focus of a campaign by the anti-abortion Life Issues Institute because it also performs abortions and maintains it is one of the largest chain of abortion mills in the US.
