Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act to be introduced in U.S. Senate
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 10, 2015 (LifeSiteNews)
A bill to prevent unborn babies from feeling searing pain during an abortion will be introduced in the U.S. Senate tomorrow.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC, will introduce the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act before the world’s most deliberative body tomorrow, following a press conference with pro-life organizations at the Capitol Visitors Center.
“Right now in our country, a child can be killed in his or her mother’s womb for any reason, at any point, up until the moment of birth. We are one of only seven nations in the world, including China and North Korea, to allow such brutality,” said Susan B. Anthony List president Marjorie Dannenfelser, who will join Graham at tomorrow’s press conference. “We are a better nation than this.”
The move comes just one month after the House passed the bill, which would ban most abortions after 20 weeks, with a bipartisan 242-184 vote. The House passed the law on the second anniversary of Kermit Gosnell’s murder conviction.
