Rhode Island has jointed the Democratic states passing horrible abortion bills because they are afraid Roe v Wade’s time is near:
AP – Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo signed a bill Wednesday to preserve federal abortion protections in state law.
The Senate passed the bill and immediately transmitted it to the House, which resumed its session to pass it. Raimondo signed it in her office, calling it an “important, consequential bill.”
The new law says the state will not restrict the right to an abortion prior to fetal viability or afterward if an abortion is necessary for the health or life of the mother.
The House version of the bill was changed during the Senate’s committee process. An expansion of who may consent to a minor’s abortion was removed.
Language was added to make clear that late-term abortions are only allowed when necessary to preserve the mother’s life or health. The Senate is amending another statute to ensure the attorney general can prosecute crimes that result in the death of a fetus.
So it’s not as bad as New York, but pretty darn close.
And just to make a point, they say in the bill the phrase “the health or life of the mother”. But we all know that’s nonsense, because to Democrats ‘health’ will most certainly include mental health, allowing people to kill their babies for whatever reason they want.
Republican Senator Elaine Morgan had this to say:
“We have to go out of the country to adopt a baby,” she said. “We don’t have enough babies in this country because we’re killing them all and now we’re allowing it to happen almost to birth.”
We live in a country where evil is allowed to thrive and the death of the most innocent is considered health care. Let the people who pass these laws be an anathema.
