Today, the United States Senate voted on an anti-infanticide bill introduced by Senator Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. The legislation needed 60 votes to pass, and it failed by a vote of 53 in favor and 44 against. The bill stated that “if an abortion results in the live birth of an infant, the infant is a legal person for all purposes under the laws of the United States, and entitled to all the protections of such laws.”
The 2002 Born Alive Infants Protection Act, signed into law by President George W. Bush, established that any child born alive — even as the result of an abortion — is to be legally considered a “person”, “human being,” “child”, and “individual” in federal law. However, that law contained no penalties for those who choose not to follow it. Senator Sasse’s bill included penalties for abortionists who break the law, including a fine and/or imprisonment for up to five years.

democrats are now OFFICIALLY baby killers ... these people are insane ...
This is already the law of the land. Less talk and more action is needed, investigate and prosecute law breakers.
As I think about the baby who was just tortured and survived, I shake in disbelief at the stone cold hearted adults who voted to let them die in pain and agony.
King Manasseh of Judah legalized child sacrifice.
“Surely at the command (mouth) of the LORD it came upon Judah, to remove them from His sight because of the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he had done, and also for the innocent blood which he shed, for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; AND THE LORD WOULD NOT FORGIVE.” [All caps mine] 2 Kings 24: 3 &4.
The consequence? Invasion and conquest. So Be It.
“Democrats are almost 100% lockstep on murdering fetuses”.
Killing babies is as evil as it gets. Satan smiles on Democrats.
Yes, Merkowski really is a coward. There is no excuse for not voting on this.

And now W pals around with the official anti-BAIPA guy himself, Barack.
How is W able to look himself in the mirror? Hrrmpf.
[Satan smiles on Democrats]
That’s how Barack got so far, IMHO.
Sickening. Did they also stand up and cheer that this didn’t pass?
When animals do kill their offspring it is when the newborn is sick or unlikely to survive. There are cases where a newly born or aborted infant is so compromised that it will not survive and is physically grotesque. The parents and doctors may decide that it is useless to try to preserve life. The parents may refuse the infant, and/or have no way to pay for a lifetime of hospital or constant home care. The hospitals would go out of business if they were left caring for every helpless infant who will continue to need constant care until they die. I don’t believe the Trump medical bill made provisions for such issues. Therefore your tax dollars would pay for the constant care of an ever increasing number of the hopeless and deformed. Years ago I went to a mental hospital as part of a sociology class. There I saw a 23 year old bearded shrunken deformed man in the fetal position sucking his thumb in a crib. He was unable to roll over, sit up or do anything else a one year old infant could do. I also saw several children who were around 4 or 5 and deaf and blind. They were sitting on the ground, not moving or reacting to anything, and receiving nothing but feeding and cleaning. I also shared a group therapy situation with a young woman whose child had died of Tay-Sacks (sp?) Disease, a heredity condition which leads to early death. She had spent 4 years caring for this child until it died as predicted. She was now pregnant again and planning on getting an amniocentices genetic test of the fetus. She then would face an abortion or no abortion decision. These are the situations that doctors and parents face when at late term a serious medical condition is discovered.
You DO KNOW that it needed 60 votes right?
And you DO KNOW there was a law from 2002 but there was just no penalty for killing the baby.
You do know SOMETHING, RIGHT?
This vote will kill the dem contender next year.
And if this passed, JUST WHO in an abortion clinic was going to say anything?!!?!?!
Critical thinking here needs to go up some.
The crying by TOO MANY here NEVER STOPS.
You whine like the snowflakes but are not supposed to be ones.
Geez.
FOLKS. THE BILL WAS ASKING MURDERERS TO NOT MURDER OR ASKING ASSISTANT TO MURDERERS TO REPORT THE MURDER.
IT WAS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
THINK for a second.
You are READY AND WILLING TO KILL THE BABY and actually get paid to do it OR assist in it.
And you expected what from such people?
“Oh well it was ok to me 5 minutes ago to kill this human but now it’s wrong and I will call the police!”
Come on man.
ABORTION needs to outlawed. Honestly, not laws that are pathetic in what they are covering.
And yes this law is pathetic.
“PLEASE don’t kill our babies five minutes later but you can kill them five minutes earlier.
IT ALWAYS WAS A CONCESSION!!
And a horrifying one at that.
In fact, in my opinion, the law almost ADDS credibility to abortion,
“SEE, EVEN REPUBLICANS KNOW THE DIFFERENCE OF LIFE OUTSIDE THE WOMB COMPARED TO LIFE INSIDE!!”
SMH
No- My comment was a punn.
But you are a judgemental one.
And if the truth be told it is you who is raging like an Antifa snowflake.
I’m an idiot tonight. Ignore me.
I don’t know what to make of all of this.
We need a LAW against what EVERYONE already accepts as the definition of murder?
And you had a right to come at me much harder.
I apologize
Once a person crosses the line to excuse abortion (murder) as a necessary convenience, the incremental progression to choose any murder convenient and justified is the natural path of thought and deed.
And that, folks, is why socialist/communist regimes, like the United States is evolving into, kill hundreds of millions of their own citizens; the necessity of convenience.
Murkowski is a coward."
