VA Gov On Abortion: “Infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother desired”

Roe v. Wade gave women the right to abort up to the point of fetal “viability,” a term that continues to foster debate as neonatal care advances. Physicians generally point to between 22 and 24 weeks as the point at which a newborn baby can survive outside the womb.

It is why that Roe V. Wade is ripe to have this to return to the Supreme Court. Settled law? I think not. Now with infanticide looming to be added to the abortion issue, how can it not be challenged?

Unfortunately, the Abortion Committee hearing in VA only received a portion of tape coverage of Ms Tran’s testimony. What is even worse, Ms Kathy Tran, the instigator and creator of the murder bill, dances and obfuscates about what is really in her bill.

I will include the more lengthy portion of the video that really show her own unwillingness to reveal what was really in the bill. For more on what Ms Tran is all about see my earlier post:

Now to the matter at hand.

This week Dr, Hamada was on Fox. I caught his tweet:

Omar L. Hamada, MD, MBA @OmarHamada

“I want to clear something up so that there is absolutely no doubt. I’m a Board Certified OB/GYN who has delivered over 2,500 babies. There’s not a single fetal or maternal condition that requires third trimester abortion. Not one. Delivery, yes. Abortion, no.”

On 1/30/2019, on WTOP’s Ask The Governor, VA Democrat Governor Ralph Northam defended the VA Dem’s 40-week abortion bill saying, “If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”

Governor Northam is a Pediatric Neurologist.

Let me clarify before you watch. The bill does not limit the abortion at time of birth to babies physically challenged. Basically any reason at all. The mental state of the Mpther can decide it. The provision of two Physicians approval was removed. In fact, one does not even have to be a Physician to perform abortions. You will hear that in the full clip of Ms Tran.

HB 2491 – Recognizing that women have the constitutional right to make healthcare decisions about their own bodies, this bill aligns with the US Supreme Court decision Whole Women’s Health v. Hellerstedt and eliminates medically unnecessary and unduly burdensome requirements that make it difficult for women to access abortions.

The bill was defeated yesterday. All Democrats voting in favor of the bill.
