Wyoming governor signs 'Born Alive' bill modifying abortion restrictions

Source: The Hill

Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon (R) on Thursday signed a bill that changes preexisting law and requires health care providers treat "any viable infant aborted alive" with the same "care that would be rendered to any other infant born alive."

As Oil City News reports, the bill, known as "Born alive infant-means of care," changes previous legislation by adding the language "any viable infant."

The new bill also states, "Any physician performing an abortion shall take medically appropriate and reasonable steps to preserve the life and health of an infant born alive."

According to Oil City News, in Wyoming viability is defined as "that stage of human development when the embryo or fetus is able to live by natural or life-supportive systems outside the womb of the mother according to appropriate medical judgment."

And we cain’t control ourselves neither: no heart, no brains, no moral agency, just a uterus on legs walking around waiting to be inseminated by any passing male.

I hate them. I am 100% over trying to reason with people like that. They are not pro-life; they are anti-woman, and deep down inside they loathe us.

who are just as medically ignorant as they are. That;s the real problem.

Well, that and a profound fear of anything pertaining to the female reproductive system.

Republicans are in favor of killing living babies and have done so.

Pro-life is a myth.

The supposed pro-lifers cared naught when the state of Texas (republican gov, republican Prez) deliberately killed living baby Sun Hudson against the mother's wishes because he was an inconvenience to the state.

It is not a matter of life to the supposed pro-lifers.

It is a matter of control.

Zero.

Embryos and blastocysts are not infants. A fetus is not an infant.
Science matters on this. And Roe is still settled law.

More laws in opposition to things not happening.
