Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act.. from an e-mail from SBA-list.org

Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act introduced in the U.S. House of Representative this week!

Did you know the unborn child has less legal protection from feeling pain than commercial livestock under the Humane Slaughter Act?

This is unbelievable…

But a new bill introduced this week would change this and give protection to unborn babies.

The Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act would require those who perform abortions on unborn children 20 weeks after fertilization or later to inform the woman seeking an abortion of the medical evidence that the unborn child feels pain during the abortion. This information would be provided through a verbal statement given by the abortion provider and by supplying the woman with a brochure – developed by the Department of Health and Human Services – that goes into more detail than the verbal statement.

The Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act would also ensure that the woman, if she chooses to continue with the abortion procedure after being given the medical information, has the option of choosing anesthesia for the unborn child, so that the unborn child’s pain is less severe.

This critical bill will highlight the horror of abortion and will help to stop abortions.
