I recently told you about California Assembly Bill 2223, which contains a provision preventing any person from being subject to civil or criminal liability “based on actions or omissions with respect to their . . . alleged pregnancy outcome, including . . . perinatal death.” You may recall that the “perinatal” period covers roughly from 28 weeks of pregnancy to 1-4 weeks post birth.
Based on our legal analysis of Assembly Bill 2223, and Maryland Bills 626 and 669, we informed you that the legislation – as proposed – could handicap the investigations into the deaths of newborns and effectively legalize infanticide.
Despite the plethora of “fact check” articles that have denied and downplayed the stark truth of what we’ve been saying about these bills, we now have an official analysis provided by the Chief Counsel for the pro-abortion majority California State Assembly Committee on Judiciary, stating that “the ‘perinatal death’ language could lead to an unintended and undesirable conclusion.” The analysis goes on to say that the bill
may not be sufficiently clear that ‘perinatal death’ is intended to be the consequence of a pregnancy complication. Thus, the bill could be interpreted to immunize a pregnant person from all criminal penalties for all pregnancy related outcomes, including the death of a newborn for any reason during the ‘perinatal’ period after birth, including a cause of death which is not attributable to pregnancy complications . . . .

Exactly. This is what we’ve been raising the alarm about for weeks. It could in fact effectively legalize infanticide.
Contrary to what a lot of the Left seems to believe these days – words actually matter. This is an important point that a lot of “fact-checkers” who have little to no legal training have seemed to miss.
As this official analysis highlights, what a bill’s author says that the bill is intended to do and what the language in a bill actually does are not always the same thing.
The author of Assembly Bill 2223 is now trying to slap a quick fix on the bill by adding some language that is also problematic. We are preparing legal analysis on the amendments that have been adopted, as it appears this bill will make its way through the California Assembly committees and over to the Senate committees.
We will keep you updated as we continue to fight this infanticide bill – and others like it – across the country.
If Commiafornia should fall into the Pacific, I wouldn’t give a rats behind.
Sorry. Of course not. I should have realized that the California Assembly is not an elected body. Sorry.
Wait, you actually think Democrats hold honest elections?
It doesn’t care much of a philosophical stretch to conclude that if an infant of 28 days is fair game for execution, so is a legislator of 28 years.
Just sayin’.
thanks
Go ahead and blame the California voters for the cheating Democrats, your just giving the cheating party legitimacy
The Peoples Convoy is in Sacramento to protest ten medical tyranny bills. They added AB2223 to their list of outrageous bills.
Wysiwig and Orea Express are two youtube livestreamers who are covering it. They are the real media.
Yesterday, the convoy invaded Sacramento. Many members attended the hearing and they confronted at least two baby killer delegates. One of the truckers bought an old fire truck and makes great use of the siren and horn.
Today, about 50 cars are camped out in front of Gavin Newsome’s house. Oreo Express is streaming that now.
FReepers-Follow and support these patriots.
But I’m a democrat and a Christian.
Sorry, one cannot be a Christian and a democrat. Period.
bkmk
The Party of Death
Soylent Gold and Platinum coming to California soon.
You act like California is the only place with Democrats proposing this law
No, but probably the first to ram it through with the rest of the crazies jumping on the bandwageon.
I doubt this pass in all seriousness, way too many lawsuits and courts that would strike this down, there is a reason laws this extreme never passed
Change it to 100 years and in California only. We can have a purge every day and not just on October 21st. I hate buttons.
Liberal whackjob’s need to sacrifice infants to Moloch, right?
Funny how every leftist in California was never born there and only moved there in the last 25 years
We will be judged like the tribes who occupied the lands that were given to Israel.
This is out and out murder!
