Kamala Harris twice voted to block bill that would protect newborn babies

Are there babies who are born alive after surviving an attempted abortion? Yes.
Did Vice President Kamala Harris agree to legislation aimed at protecting their life and health? No.
In 2019 and 2020, when Harris was serving in the Senate, she twice voted to block a bill that would have required doctors to provide the same health care to a newborn baby who had survived an abortion as they would to a newborn who had not been targeted for an abortion.
On its webpage about babies who survive attempted abortions, the Charlotte Lozier Institute provides a link to a study published in 2018 by Obstetrics & Gynecology. It is entitled: “Fetal Survival in Second-Trimester Termination of Pregnancy Without Feticide.”
“We conducted a retrospective analysis of 241 terminations of pregnancy without feticide for fetal anomalies or genetic abnormalities between 20 0/7 and 24 0/7 weeks of gestation at a single tertiary care center in Europe between February 2003 and May 2017,” said the study.
“Live birth occurred in 122 cases,” said the report.
In other words, more than half the babies in this study were born alive after their mothers underwent late-term “terminations of pregnancy.”
