LANSING, Michigan - Michigan Democrats continued their push to remove any limits on the intentional killing of preborn babies up until the moment of birth, with a late-night passage on Wednesday of House Bill 4949. The “Reproductive Health Act” legislation follows up on a vote last November to enshrine a “right” to abortion in the state constitution.[Snip]Although the legislation will allow for the unrestricted killing of preborn babies at any stage of the pregnancy, it did not go far enough for Planned Parenthood, which criticized the minimal restrictions still in place.

So much death and destruction and disreguard for human life. How did we get here? Instead of abortions maybe we need to offer free sterilizations. Birth control is offered in practically every store. It is not hidden behind a counter. You don't have to ask for it. Just check yourself out and pay for it. For goodness sakes use it. Way too many people relying on abortion as their main birth control method. This is disgusting and barbaric and yes, it is murder. The worshipping of abortion is beyond my comprehension.

Are fetuses allowed to be aborted after they have been elected into the Michigan legislature?

A fetus is just as much a human being as the legislature members are.

#1~ “How did we get here?” / Excellent question with responses that will vary widely. Venturing forth with one perception, abortions have been performed since ancient times; however, with advances in medicine and surgery, and what appears to be a seeming disregard/rejection of traditional mores by the intense counterculture movement of the 1960s that included abandonment of mainline religion, what is being seen today may be reaping what was sown at that time. Chances are the children of the counterculture enthusiasts may not have been given any exposure to mainline religious denominations so have no knowledge of God or Scripture resulting in “seeking” pleasures to satisfy “something” elusive within themselves, a restlessness—thus, alcohol, drugs, sex, sexual perversions, live-in relationships rather than lifetime commitments of marriage, disregard for human life from cradle to grave as examples of seeking but not finding that “missing” something in their lives. Add to that leftist ideology (devoid of religious values) indoctrination through the education system at all levels provides another layer of emptiness, restlessness, compassionlessness. The reality is, their “incompleteness” is the lack of God in their lives; the contentment, the inner peace, the anchor of knowing God’s love through the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
“By taking the lives of our young, and wounding the wombs and lives of their mothers, we are flying in the face of God. We cannot play God. If we continue down this path of destruction, we will be met at the gates by our own doom.” ~ Alveda King

#1 - Birth control requires forethought and/or consistent action. Birth control pills mean remembering to take them every day. That can be hard for a teenager, college student or a woman in her early twenties in the free-spirit party mode. There are side-effects like tender breasts and weight gain that many women find discomforting. IUDs have been found to be problematic and are not popular. Using condoms or creams at "the moment" are buzz kills. It is much easier to "roll the dice" because abortion is so readily available and society approved. Hey, its legal, isn't it? It's such a simple procedure and Medicare pays for it! Legalizing abortion made it the easiest form of birth control.

Christ made it very clear what would happen to those who harm an innocent child.
These fools are spitting in His face.
God help them.

Two thousand years ago, killing babies was common across the Roman empire. Inconvenient babies were routinely dumped in the field to die. Progressives now wish to make that practice legal again and have the medical advantage of killing their babies without having to carry them to full term first.

You can't blame the democrats for giving the uncivilized, immoral leftist loons exactly what they want. It all turns into votes no matter how vile and evil it is. Killing children in any form is murder but if it reduces the population of Satan's children it might eventually improve the breeding stock.

Is there not one District Atty anywhere in MI willing to take the leap and charge a woman with murder, as well as the doctor, for conspiring to take a human life? It would certainly be a landmark case.

These dem dumbocrats should join Hamas. They bake babies in an oven. After all, what's the difference. Or as a university stated, the baby should be born alive then they can harvest the kidneys better. What a country we have become.

The translation of "reproductive health" is "butchering unborn babies." Indeed, legalized murder. Nothing new that the left is always changing the meaning of the language. Don't be fooled by their euphemisms. They got tired of being tarred as "liberals," so now they are "progressives." I'm sure you can come up with other examples.

Ohioans, take note that Michigan enshrined a “right” to abortion in the state constitution last November and this legislation is a follow-up to it. One Republican called the Reproductive Health Act “legalized murder” but Speaker Pro Tempore “ordered him not to impugn the motives of his colleagues.”
