John Thune to Force Senate Democrats to Vote on Bill Protecting Babies Born Alive in Abortions

Katherine Hamilton 13 Jan 2025

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) is going to force Democrats to vote on whether or not babies born alive in abortions should be legally protected, the lawmaker announced.

Thune said during remarks from the Senate floor last week that he will bring the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act for a vote before the 52nd Annual March for Life in Washington, DC, on January 24.

“This straightforward bill simply states that a baby born alive after an attempted abortion is entitled to the same protection and medical care that any other newborn baby is entitled to,” Thune said.

“This vote will ask Democrats to answer whether a living baby born after an attempted abortion should be provided with medical care or be left to die,” he added. “It shouldn’t be a hard question.”

So, abortion is no longer a states' rights issue?  It's now Federal?

How is this a federal issue, or is he just trying to humiliate the Dems?

I’m speculating here but they are drawing a distinction for a live birth, whether or not it was during an attempted abortion.

Murky. While abortion is a state issue, babies that survive that? I don't know.

That's how I read it as well. It doesn't seem to be interfering with abortion.
