Tennessee Advances “Texas Style” Abortion Legislation – Desiring To Save Lives Everyday
GNN Note – You are going to hear from the leftist and how they believe God’s children have no rights to life, how God’s children are, some how, the enemy of the mother and she should have the “right” to kill a child inside her body. The leftist always claim it is “her body, her choice” when in fact it is the body of another person. / END
‘Worse Than Texas’: Extreme Anti-Choice Bills Advance in Multiple States proclaims “progressive” website Common Dreams. by Brett Wilkins
As anti-choice policymakers across the country seek to severely restrict reproductive freedom—and as the fate of Roe v. Wade hangs in the balancepending a looming U.S. Supreme Court decision—Republican lawmakers in at least four states this week advanced bills banning or limiting abortion access.

The Idaho Legislature on Monday became the first in the nation to approve a bill modeled after a Texas law that empowers citizens to sue anyone who “aids or abets” an abortion after six weeks.
Idaho’s S.B. 1309 bans abortions after six weeks of pregnancy while allowing potential relatives of an aborted fetus to sue doctors who perform the procedure. The bill establishes a reward of $20,000 plus legal fees for successful litigants. Unlike the Texas law, it allows exceptions in cases of rape or incest but requires victims to file a police report with a physician before undergoing an abortion.
State Rep. Lauren Necochea (D-19A) called the bill an “extreme assault on reproductive rights.”
“If I am raped and choose to have an abortion and my rapist has 10 siblings, is there anything to preclude all of them and their spouses from bringing a lawsuit for $20,000 each?” Necochea asked state Rep. Steven Harris (R-21), the bill’s sponsor, during a pre-vote debate.
“I’m not sure their spouses are included in that list,” said Harris, “but no.”
Really no words for this cruel Texas-style bill heading to Gov. Brad Little’s desk: Idaho Senate Bill 1309 would ban abortion after six weeks, and it allows family members of rapists to sue medical providers.
