I like that this is a strong anti abortion message without calling for laws against it.
Its not a new law.
They wanted to make it so that fewer doctors have to sign off.
They already allow these late term abortions in Virginia.
Governor's comments: if the baby needs machines to live, is the mom not allowed to tell them to turn off the machines?
The law was not about necking babies who can live on their own.
Republicans are deceiving on this.
Causing division for political gains.
Shills are here pitching an emotional response based on false premises, as if emotional responses weren't bad enough on their own.
