House Dems quash bill mandating medical care for infants who survive abortions
By Sam Dorman | Fox News March 1, 2020:
House Democrats on Friday rejected Republicans’ attempt to recommit legislation that would have required medical care for infants who survive abortions.
With a 220-187 vote, Democrats blocked Republicans from adding the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Act as an amendment to a bill regulating tobacco sales. The Senate’s version received a majority vote in the chamber but was unable to reach the 60-vote threshold needed to block a filibuster.
According to the bill’s sponsor, Rep. Ann Wagner, R-Mo., Democrats refused to bring her bill to the floor 80 times. After Friday’s vote, she was incredulous on Twitter.
Democrats AGAIN blocked my bill requiring lifesaving medical care for babies who are born-alive.
It breaks my heart to find that we must defend lifesaving care for newborn babies.
I will not stop until we get a vote on this critically important bill.https://t.co/Q5LGLVtJfv

“Democrats AGAIN blocked my bill requiring lifesaving medical care for babies who are born-alive,” she said. “It breaks my heart to find that we must defend lifesaving care for newborn babies. I will not stop until we get a vote on this critically important bill.”
Only three Democrats supported the bill: Reps. Dan Lipinski, D-Ill., Ben McAdams, D-Utah, and Collin Peterson, D-Minn.
Susan B. Anthony List President Marjorie Dannenfelser ripped Democrats for “supporting infanticide.”
“Americans of all political stripes are disgusted by this extreme, inhumane position and we are confident that will be reflected at the ballot box this November,” she said in a statement provided to Fox News.
CNN UPDATES REPORT TO REMOVE ‘FETUS THAT WAS BORN’ PHRASING
“President Trump stands ready to sign the popular, compassionate Born-Alive legislation into law. It is national Democrats — from the party’s leading presidential contenders to Nancy Pelosi — who stand squarely in the way of protecting these innocent children from being left to die.”
Dr. Kristyn Brandi, of Physicians for Reproductive Health, told Vox that the Senate version could hinder providers’ ability to practice and contained wording that would leave doctors vulnerable to lawsuits. Brandi also reportedly claimed a “false narrative” surrounding the bill. She said she had never heard of a situation where a child was born after a failed abortion attempt.
Fox News previously interviewed Gianna Jessen who said she survived a botched saline abortion, in which she was “burned alive.” A group known as Faces of Choice exists to bring awareness to people born alive after failed abortions.
Tension surrounding Friday’s vote reflected a broader battle taking place in states across the country. State legislatures have been battling groups like Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to keep newly-passed abortion restrictions on the books.
BUTTIGIEG FACES BACKLASH FROM PRO-LIFE WOMEN AFTER INFANTICIDE ANSWER: ‘YOU’RE EXTREMELY RADICAL’
Meanwhile, Democrats have come under fire for supporting what critics call “extreme” measures related to abortion and newly-born infants.
Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, in particular, backed the decision to withhold care from infants based on the decision of mothers.
“When we talk about third-trimester abortions, these are done with the consent of obviously the mother, with the consent of the physician — more than one physician, by the way — and it’s done in cases where there may be severe deformities. There may be a fetus that’s non-viable,” he said in January 2019.
Former Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg also faced backlash over the issue when he indicated to “The View” that he wouldn’t support restrictions on infanticide.
“What if a woman wanted to invoke infanticide after a baby was born — you’d be comfortable with that?” co-host Meghan McCain asked. Buttigieg balked at McCain’s argument.
“We’re talking about families that may have picked out a name — may be assembling a crib — and they learn something excruciating and are faced with this terrible choice — and I don’t know what to tell them morally about what they should do,” he said. “I just know that I trust her and her decision medically or morally isn’t going to be any better because the government is commanding her to do it in a certain way.”

To actually SEE a baby struggling to live after being put through such, and still say, “Kill it.” has got to be the absolute epitome of all evil.

I couldn’t agree more. These same people should NOT be objecting to the horrors Muslims put the infidel and “honor” victims through and survive. Oops – they don’t care about that either. DEMS are truly becoming the party of EVIL cheerleaders.
An abortion is the intentional dismemberment of a living human being because it is inconvenient. Pregnancy mishaps take care of themselves naturally – even tubal pregnancies. It is RARE that an abortion is needed.

And then you wonder why Casey Anthony murdered her 2-year-old daughter Caylee in 2008.
And then you wonder why a New Jersey teen, Jada McClain, murdered her newborn last spring, and had her boyfriend toss the baby’s corpse into a garbage disposal.
And then you wonder why a young Michigan woman, Marylinn Feher, did likewise not long after.
Not to mention similar cases in The Bronx, NY and in Florida.
Attitudes toward life, like politics, flow downstream from the culture. And Planned Parenthood and NARAL and the rest of the abortion culture are definitively complicit in these and other murders of newborns, infants and toddlers by their mothers or the mothers’ boyfriends in the years since Roe v. Wade. The constant drumbeat about pregnancy being akin to a catastrophic illness and tantamount to a death sentence, motherhood being a punishment to be resented and a waste of time, and children as an unwanted, unwelcome, undue burden, have helped foster completely unhealthy attitudes about life and about motherhood and children.
And then there’s the excuse from some of them that “I had no other options.” Of course – this is definitely true in militantly pro-abortion states where pro-life pregnancy centers are an endangered species and ultrasound machines are outlawed so that pregnant women are even more susceptible into being manipulated and coerced into having abortions.
It is even worse, given the mass decline in native birth rates in this country, with levels reaching the “unsustainable for our continued survival” stage; coupled with the militant open-borders mentality and the flooding of Third World illegals and Muslims, what with their high birth rates where they outbreed those native to this country. The end will be a demographic nightmare and disaster. Abortion is basically genocide by attrition, the goal being depopulation.

Agree. And the very same nuts want to bring in more illegals/jihadis who rape, assault, murder women !
They are aided by the dumb , ignorant Left/Liberal loons coming out of colleges/schools run by pro-jihadi left/liberal loons
And by the time they realise their stupidity they get assaulted , gang raped or murdered like this couple its too late for them http://offtrade.net/cnmnews/libs-say-evil-is-myth/
Problem is they enable evil while not able to see evil thanks to pro-jihadi left/liberal indoctrination in schools/colleges where real history of islam and America is no longer taught.

Yes, these leftists have no moral compass. They think their own personal opinion is their moral compass.

A new born baby a child to an American citizen should have all the rights of an adult, should have all the medical care to survive. Time to challenge the Demoncrat to apply to their children even if in a private hospital

Demokkkrats vote to kill babies …
… the political ads write themselves.
Trump will do great …
… but other Republicans will have to have the guts to run ads. Trump’s coattails will carry many, but maybe not all.
If they fight, they will win … let ’em know …

Those who enthusiastically endorse death for the innocent will certainly justify the mass murder of their ideological opponents, Of that, we can be absolutely certain. That is why Bernie and his Commiecrat fellow-travelers can never be allowed to take control of the White House under any condition whatsoever and why it is justified to oppose them at all levels and by any means.

Oh come on now! You really didn’t think or believe that ANY DEMOCRAT would be PRO-LIFE IN ANY WAY, did ya? Then, you, Rep. Ann Wagner, R-Mo.are as naive and ignorant as any Democrat out there already is.
DEMOCRATS ARE PRO-DEATH, PRO ILLEGALS, PRO ILLEGAL DRUGS, PRO IRAN, PRO EVIL, AND ANTI-AMERICAN. I cannot sum up who a DemonRAT really is any better than that!
DEMOCRATS are becoming MS-13, using their TITLE, money, and influence to break any laws THEY don’t want to follow just to get votes, hang on to their jobs and raping the American people of anything they hold dear that is righteous and good in America/our culture.
IF YOU VOTE DEMOCRAT, YOU ARE VOTING FOR SATAN.
IF YOU VOTE DEMOCRAT, YOU ARE VOTING AGAINST OUR U.S. CONSTITUTION.

For me, there is no hole too deep or corner so dark as to hide the Democrat monsters who frustrated that womans bill.
Planned genocide either in late term or after birth for reasons best known to the mother must rank as the ultimate betrayal. I cannot add more, it’s too upsetting.
