Ben Sasse is leading on life. Now the pressure is on Mitch McConnell to support himSen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., is leading on protecting life in the United States Senate. On Thursday evening, Sasse went to the Senate floor and announced he would begin an expedited process for the Senate to consider the
Born-Alive Survivors Protection Act, a bill that simply instructs an abortionist to try to save the life of a baby who survives an attempted abortion and is born alive. Sasse is taking action,
he says, to put all 100 U.S. Senators on the record opposing infanticide following Virginia Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam’s comments defending a late-term abortion bill.
“A public elected official — the governor of one of the 50 states — has been defending a practice that is morally repugnant,†Sasse said. He quoted Northam, who on Wednesday said, “If the mother is in labor, the infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physician and the mother.â€
“Let’s be really clear about what we’re talking about here,†Sasse continued. “We’re talking about fourth-trimester abortion, or what anyone in the normal world calls infanticide. That’s what we’re talking about, and the governor of Virginia has been defending this all day yesterday and again today. Going out and trying to equivocate and qualify and then double down and again say he wants to defend this practice, which is infanticide.â€...........
