Here in Massachusetts, USA, two bills are coming up in the next six months for consideration that greatly expand Roe v. Wade. They are not about eliminating Roe v. Wade. The two bills under consideration (H. 3320 and S. 1209) would:
1. Expand abortion access, including late-term abortions, during the nine months of pregnancy for virtually any reason.
2. Eliminate requirements that late-term abortions be performed in a hospital.
3. Eliminate the requirement that provides medical care to a child who survives an abortion attempt.
4. Eliminate the requirement that a minor under the age of 18 have the consent of a parent, guardian, or the courts.
5. Expand sate funding for women who cannot afford the procedure.
One question I have about these bills concerns doctors who take the Hippocratic Oath, which states that they “Do No Harm.”
How on earth does a doctor murdering a child who survives an abortion attempt, “Do No Harm?”
How does a doctor who takes the Hippocratic Oath “Do No Harm” in an abortion in the first place?
Adoption is the answer for all unwanted pregnancies.
These bills would significantly change Massachusetts law.
This is not about overturning Roe v. Wade.
Please contact your legislators if you are a Massachusetts voter, and say No on Abortion Expansion. You can log on to www.macatholic.org and follow the links to find contact information for your individual Sate Senator and Representative via address and zip code; and members of the Joint Committee on Judiciary who control the fate of H. 3320 and S. 1209.
