January 8, 2023: Open Letter to the City of Rockford Planning & Zoning Office
Is it not surprising, considering that Rockford’s mayor and several city council members have publicly spoken at pro-abortion rallies in our city, that a special use permit, which is needed for an abortion clinic to open in a residential neighborhood, suddenly disappears? Why is the Auburn street abortion location being allowed to open without a permit?
We have proof from the Illinois Department of Public Health that the former abortion mill in Rockford placed the lives and health of women in danger. Why does the city not care about this and why were you so desperate to keep not allow this information to be brought up before the Zoning board?
We have photographic evidence, witnesses, and police reports proving that when Dennis Christensen owned the Northern Illinois Women's Center many signs appeared in the clinic windows that contained messages of racism, bigotry, hate, and vile mockery of God and human life. Why does city of Rockford refuse to acknowledge this deep hatred directed toward the people of Rockford, and why was the zoning board prevented from seeing this horrific truth?
This abortion mill in a residential neighborhood will result in countless protests and counter protests, loud interaction on the sidewalk and alleys near dozens of homes, countless police calls to the neighborhood, property values reduced, and the entire city seeing this Auburn St neighborhood as the "abortion center" of Rockford. This neighborhood will be changed for the worse if this abortion mill continues to operate. Why has your office been silent about this and why was this information not allowed to be presented to the zoning board?
As we know, abortion is a crime against God and humanity. It is the murder of a little girl or boy in the womb. We respectfully ask you to answer the above questions as a matter of common decency and for the good of the people of Rockford.
