Senate
Democrats blocked the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act Monday
evening, which, under the threat of prison time, would have forced doctors to
provide medical care to babies born alive in a failed abortion.
The bill, which was
sponsored by Republican Sen. Ben Sasse (Neb.) and cosponsored by 49 GOP
senators, failed by a vote of 53-44. Only three Democrats voted with
Republicans: Sens. Bob Casey Jr. (Pa.), Joe Manchin (W.Va.), and Doug Jones
(Ala.). Three Republicans were not present at the vote over flight delays and
scheduling issues, including Sens. Kevin Cramer (N.D.), Tim Scott (S.C.), and
Lisa Murkowski (Alaska).
The Born-Alive
Abortion Survivors Protection Act would have required that
"any health care practitioner present" at the time of a birth
"exercise the same degree of professional skill, care, and diligence to
preserve the life and health of the child as a reasonably diligent and
conscientious health care practitioner would render to any other child born
alive at the same gestational age."
The
bill, which exempted the mother involved in the birth from prosecution, also
would have required practitioners to "ensure that the child born alive is
immediately transported and admitted to a hospital." It prescribed a
possible term of imprisonment of up to five years for violations, not including
penalties for first-degree murder that could have applied. (FoxNews.com)
President Trump slammed
Democrats for the vote.
“Senate Democrats just voted against legislation to prevent the killing of
newborn infant children. The Democrat position on abortion is now so extreme
that they don’t mind executing babies AFTER birth,” he tweeted. “This will be
remembered as one of the most shocking votes in the history of Congress. If
there is one thing we should all agree on, it’s protecting the lives of
innocent babies.”
Sasse
said the vote shouldn't have been about politics but rather "about having
a heart."
"This is about the most simple thing you can say, which is
that a baby is a baby, and they have dignity and worth," Sasse said after
the vote. "And it's not because they're powerful. It's because they're
babies. Today is a sad day in the United States Senate."

“I Cut the Vocal Cord So The Baby Can't Scream.”
*
Dr. Leah Torres, an OB/GYN in Salt Lake City, Utah, said that
when she performs certain abortions she cuts the vocal cord of the baby so
"there's really no opportunity" for the child to scream. She also
described herself as a "uterus ripper outer" because she performs
hysterectomies.

Betrayed,” which highlights the undercover investigation of Planned Parenthood
that uncovered evidence that the organization had trafficked organs of aborted
babies.
