Dems urge Google to limit search results showing pro-life pregnancy centers they call ‘fake clinics’

A dozen House and Senate Democrats have demanded the top executive at Google restrict search engine results showing pro-life pregnancy centers.

The lawmakers called pregnancy centers that do not offer abortions “fake clinics.”

In a letter to Google Chief Executive Officer Sundar Pichai, the lawmakers wrote, “Directing women towards fake clinics that traffic in misinformation and don’t provide comprehensive health services is dangerous to women’s health and undermines the integrity of Google’s search results.”

The letter, which was spearheaded by Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia and Rep. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, was signed by twelve Democrats.
