So much for abortions being “safe, legal and rare.”
The Democrat governor of Massachusetts signed into law the killing of babies up until birth – or nine months into development.
This is the definition of murder.
There is a difference in the political parties.
A baby can potentially survive outside the womb starting around 22 to 24 weeks of gestation, though survival rates and health outcomes improve significantly with each additional week in utero. That is around six months of gestation.
Governor Healey will kill them all the way to the day of the baby’s birth.
This is something we never thought we’d see. Now it is law in Massachusetts.
How many of us know children and now adults who survived at five months gestation after their mother’s could not carry their baby to the full term? I know two young, successful, beautiful women who survived and are thriving after being born only five months into their mother’s pregnancy.
Via Life News:
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has signed H.5595, which would legalize abortions up to birth.
The radical bill that allows abortions up until birth even on healthy unborn babies. Democrats fast tracked the measure to bypass the full committee process so the full body could pass the bill before the legislature adjourned.
The bill passed the overwhelmingly Democrat House on July 22 by a vote of 119-33. Under current state law, abortions are allowed up to 24 weeks of pregnancy, although weak exceptions essentially allow it up to birth.
Abortions after that point are permitted only when the mother’s life or health is threatened (which could mean anything), or if the baby is unlikely to survive outside the womb. The new bill shifts the criteria for late-term abortions from that list of specific medical conditions to a more flexible standard based solely on the abortionist approving the abortion.
It would allow abortions to be carried out on babies at any gestational age after 24 weeks for any reason.

Today ends the left’s “abortion is healthcare” mantra.
