Colorado Governor Jared Polis Signs Bill to Legalize Abortion Up Until Birth Without Government Interference
April 5, 2022
Colorado Democrat Governor Jared Polis signed a bill into law on Monday that legalizes the murder of babies in the womb until birth, citing that “a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus does not have independent or derivative rights under the laws of the state.”
Governor Polis signed the Reproductive Health Equity Act (HB22-1279) as preparation for the possibility that the U.S. Supreme Court could overturn the Roe v. Wade precedent in the coming weeks, Colorado Sun reported.
“No matter what the Supreme Court does in the future, people in Colorado will be able to choose when and if they have children,” the pro-abortion Governor said during the bill signing.
“That includes assisted reproduction like IVF, and it includes the legal ability to terminate a pregnancy without having to worry about being jailed or without having to worry about their provider facing legal consequences,” Polis added.
“This bill codifies a person’s right to make reproductive health care decisions free from government interference,” said Polis.
“In the state of Colorado, the very serious decision to start a pregnancy or to end a pregnancy with medical assistance remains between a person, their doctor, and their faith,” Polis argued.
