Florida Governor Signs ‘Infants Born Alive’ Act

[Revmitchell]

Florida’s Republican Governor Rick Scott signed “Infants Born Alive” legislation on Wednesday to protect babies that survive abortions, saying the bill protects “the most vulnerable.”

“As a father and grandfather, there is nothing more precious or special than welcoming a new child into this world and by signing this bill, we are protecting the most vulnerable among us and affirming their rights as individuals,” Scott said in a statement.

“This legislation ensures common-sense measures are taken to help care for the babies who survive abortion procedures and grants those infants the same rights as infants who are born naturally,” he said.

But of course we all know that Republicans do not ever do anything about abortion they just use it for an issue.

The saddest of all - they have to make a law requiring people take care of a newborn!

and yet, here in the Salt City, a young mother delivered her baby at home - thought it was stillborn - threw it in the dumpster - she was convicted of murder.
