Thursday: Major Pro-Life Bills to Be Heard Before House Consumer and Public Affairs Committee
1:30 PM Room 309, NM Capitol
Major pro-life bills to be heard
Thursday, March 2, 2017,1:30PM at NM Capitol.
Plan on attending the public hearings for these bills this Thursday:
HB 37, Infant Born Alive Protection Act: Currently, infants who survive late-term abortions at 24 weeks and beyond in New Mexico are left to die or without basic care like a warm blanket. HB 37 would require infants who survive abortions are given palliative (comfort) care or medical care, if necessary. According to the CDC, there are over 500 cases of infants surviving abortions across the country. The UNM chief abortionist, Dr. Eve Espey admits “OB-GYNs do not ressussitate neonates” showing signs of life after late-term abortions at UNM Hospital.
HB 220, Late Term Abortion Ban (House version): Abortion is legal up to the day of birth in NM – for ANY reason. New Mexico has the highest rate of late-term abortions in the nation. Late- term abortion is dangerous for women, inhumane and involves excruciating pain for infants. After 24 weeks, an infant in utero is given an intra cardiac injection– a process deemed inhumane and cruel for exterminating animals by NM statute.
