Democrats “Women’s Health Protection Act” Would Eliminate Almost Every State Law On Abortion

This is the priority for Democrats: it always has been. It’s not ‘climate change’, it’s not equity/equality, it’s not infrastructure, it’s not even women’s rights, it’s abortion. Rather gives a good reason why Catholic bishops should deny Democrat lawmakers communion

Democrats Introduce New Bill to Eliminate Every Single Pro-Life Law Nationwide

Senate Democrats have introduced a new bill that would eliminate every single pro-life law nationwide.

The so-called Women’s Health Protection Act, “would invalidate nearly all existing state limitations on abortion,” said Jennifer Popik, director of federal legislation for National Right to Life.

“This legislation would also prohibit states from adopting new protective laws in the future, including various types of laws specifically upheld as constitutionally permissible by the U.S. Supreme Court,” she said.

Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life, said the measure “would essentially remove all legal protections for unborn children on the federal and state level. The Women’s Health Protection Act is, in effect, a no-limits-on-abortion-until-birth bill.”

Is anyone surprised that Democrats would attempt this, which would probably see an immediate lawsuit if passed by the Senate or House? Of course, the only way it would get passed by the Senate is if they nuke the filibuster. For one thing, it would end religious objection to performing abortion, violating the 1st Amendment. The federal government also has zero Constitutional authority to do this. It was not a delegated power, hence, a violation of the 10th Amendment.

If passed, here is what this bill would do:

• Eliminate all state and federal parental consent laws in relation to abortion
• Eliminate all state informed consent laws, including those that allow women to view an ultrasound prior to abortion
• Prevent states from passing laws to protect babies at 20 weeks, thereby joining countries like North Korea, China, Vietnam, Singapore, Canada, and the Netherlands in not protecting unborn children later in development
• Force doctors and nurses opposed to abortion to lose their jobs, and Catholic hospitals could lose public funds unless they perform abortions
• Eliminate decades-long limitations on direct taxpayer funding of abortion – including the popular Hyde Amendment, which has saved over 2 million lives since enacted
• In short, overturn all federal and state pro-life laws, and go further to make it illegal for elected officials to even introduce pro-life legislation

“As you can see, this bill would take pro-abortion extremism to a new and alarming level. To make matters worse, they have even erased all references to ‘women’ from the language of the bill, strangely only keeping it in the feel-good title,” McClusky said. “The radicalism of this Congress and their attacks on the inherent dignity of the human person are unprecedented. In the face of this bold radicalism, we must also raise our voices and defend mothers and the unborn from this agenda.”

So, far far left crazy on abortion, and no mention of women in the bill. This is the Democrats. And even if they do not try hard to pass it, their extremism fires up their unhinged base.
