The House this week will vote on a bill that the U.S. bishops’ conference warns would effectively impose abortion on-demand throughout pregnancy.
The Women’s Health Protection Act (H.R. 3755), introduced by Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.), recognizes the “statutory right” of women to have abortions. It also states the “right” of doctors, certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners and doctor’s assistants to perform abortions. It prohibits many limitations on this right, such as state pro-life laws requiring ultrasounds or waiting periods before abortions.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), a Catholic, announced the House vote on the bill earlier this month after a Texas law went into effect restricting abortions after detection of a fetal heartbeat; a fetal heartbeat can be detected as early as six weeks into pregnancy. The Texas law is enforced through private civil lawsuits.
After the Supreme Court rejected a challenge to the law on Sept. 1, Pelosi vowed to bring up the Women’s Health Protection Act and “enshrine into law reproductive health care for all women across America.” The bill is scheduled to be voted on this week in the House.
In an action alert, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) calls the legislation “the most radical abortion bill of all time.”
Archbishop Joseph Naumann – chair of the USCCB's pro-life committee – outlined how the bill would expand abortion, in a Sept. 15 letter to members of Congress.
“This deceptively-named, extreme bill would impose abortion on demand nationwide at any stage of pregnancy through federal statute,” Archbishop Naumann wrote. The legislation, he said, would also override state and local pro-life laws such as parental notification and informed consent requirements.
“It would force all Americans to support abortions here and abroad with their tax dollars,” he said, and “would also likely force health care providers and professionals perform...........

I thought it was supposed to be “people who are pregnant.” Saying only women can get pregnant and have abortions is anti trans. /sarc
I guess these reprobates haven’t read in the Bible what God did to those who sacrificed children. These demonically influenced individuals are bringing the wrath of God down on this country.https://christianbasics.site/gods-judgment-on-abortion/
PURE EVIL! MURDER YOUR KIDS!
"Enshrine" ? Health Care? ... Sickening.
The highway to hell is paved with leftard baby killing ghouls.
That’s why this belongs in the states. The Federal government once again will usurp the power of the states just like they did with Roe vs Wade.
Ah, more m*sturbation around the word “penumbra” to justify the typical liberal tactic of pretending that they actually can use science. Nope, the word will not be used, but stretching the condom to cover the world will be the tactic.
Can I petition the court for a super late abortion for half of Congress.
Buuuut,the lib priests looooved Biden,hated trump...Trump was mean..It’s sooooo much better now
Democrats just LOVE killin’ them babies.
Agreed ... reproductive health care ought to be stuff like pre-natal vitamins, smoking cessation, advice about nutrition, ultra-sounds for everybody, stuff like that. Free diapers, formula and parenting classes. YOu know, like crisis pregnancy centers do to help the whole family.
These ghouls are nothing but outright Satan worshippers that bow the knee to their mighty abortion god, molech. They are commanded by their big daddy in hell to do whatever is necessary to see to it that the sacrifice of the most innocent continues unabated.
And this is how America ends...
I agree 100%.
The states have never expressly constitutionally given the feds the specific power to make abortion-related laws. So the referenced bill is just another example of alleged election-stealing, elite pirate Democrats trying to unconstitutionally expand the already unconstitutionally big federal government's powers in order to try to stay in power.
The ultimate remedy for unconstitutionally big federal government oppressing everybody under its boots...
Consider that all the states can effectively “secede” from the Democratic-pirated federal government by doing the following.
Patriots need to primary federal and state elected officials who don't send voters email ASAP that clearly promises to do the following.
Federal and state lawmakers need to promise in their emails to introduce resolutions no later than 100 days after start of new legislative sessions that proposes an amendment to the Constitution to the states, the amendment limited to repealing the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.
Insights welcome.
The whole world is jamming their collective finger in Gods eye!
Just another single example of how global and pervasive abortion is (past to present) —
Only Gods judgement and wrath will end this satanic evil.

I’m just wondering how they can fit this under the ‘commerce clause’. Isn’t that how they justify everything they do?
