WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. House of Representatives will vote Tuesday, October 3, 2017 on a bill making it a crime for any person to perform or attempt to perform an abortion if the probable post-fertilization age of the unborn child is 20 weeks or more. A violator is subject to criminal penalties-a fine, up to five years in prison, or both. Liberty Counsel has worked steadily to encourage legislators to enact this life-saving bill into law.
