A group of more than two-dozen women’s and pro-choice advocacy organizations has demanded that CBS reject a Super Bowl ad that has been placed in the upcoming Feb. 7 game by Focus on the Family featuring college football star Tim Tebow.

The content of the ad has not been disclosed, although the advocacy groups protesting it are concerned that it contains an anti-abortion message.

Focus on the Family has strong anti-abortion views and Tebow’s mother famously rejected doctors’ advice to abort her pregnancy with him due to health concerns.
