A so-called pro-choice group in Texas is promoting abortion as magical and a form of self-care and using the holidays to do it.

Texas Equal Access (TEA) Fund thought it would be festive to create party favors for their upcoming holiday party in the form of prayer candles with the message, Abortions are Magical printed in block-letters on the sides.

TEA shared an image of the candles on Facebook, which the group said it made to honor our volunteers and show them a token of appreciation."

As Fox News reports, several pro-life groups and advocates including founder and president of Live Action Lila Rose and the March for Life have responded to TEAs insensitive if not outright disgusting messaging.

Abortion is not 'magical,' abortion is murder, said Rose in an interview with Daily Caller.

"Abortion simplify inflicts another act of violence against the woman & her innocent child," Live Action tweeted.

March for Life responded by inviting TEA to attend the 2020 March for Life:

Despite backlash, TEA doubled-down on its messaging. A day after sharing the photo of their holiday party favors, TEA posted on Facebook an explanation for why we use the language we use:

Abortions are an option for people who dont want to be pregnant, plain and simple, the post reads. Access to abortion care allows people to decide when to start a family. They provide new beginnings for people trying to create a future for themselves that may have been unimaginable without their abortion. Abortions help people prioritize their own physical and mental health.

TEA goes on, Abortions are magical for most people who have them and refuting that just increases stigma around abortion. They are health care, self care, and community care. We are proud to help people access abortion care and support them through the process.

TEA reposted their explanation on Wednesday and continues to post content normalizing abortion.
