Louisiana legislative committee to address Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Act Wednesday

Apr 18, 2016

dismemberingLALouisiana State Rep. Mike Johnson (R-Bossier) recently introduced HB 1081, The Louisiana Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Act, which would protect unborn babies by ending the brutal practice of dismemberment abortion where unborn babies are torn apart limb by limb.

Every year more than 1,000 innocent unborn children in Louisiana are victims of an inhumane practice called dismemberment abortion. The abortion method involves dilating a woman’s cervix, vacuuming the amniotic fluid that surrounds the child, and then introducing an instrument which is used to grasp and pull the child out, piece by piece. The child is alive during this torturous process and dies of bleeding out during the dismemberment.

Johnson, who is also a constitutional law attorney, said the following about his decision to introduce HB 1081: “Louisiana has a long history of protecting the most vulnerable members of our society – unborn children. HB 1081 will continue in that tradition by protecting these little ones from the barbaric practice of being torn apart in the womb by an abortionist’s forceps.”

 

As the bill proceeds through the legislative channels in Baton Rouge, it will be heard in the Health and Welfare Committee THIS Wednesday.
