Louisiana Legislature Passes Bill to Ban Dismemberment Abortions Tearing Off Baby’s Limbs
HB 1081, the Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Act, authored by Rep. Mike Johnson, protects unborn babies by ending the brutal practice of dismemberment abortion in Louisiana
Several states have already approved or are considering legislation to ban the dismemberment abortion technique — used to tear off a baby’s limbs during the abortion procedure during the latter portions of pregnancy. The Louisiana legislature today approved the pro-life bill to ban dismemberment abortions.
This afternoon, Louisiana took a significant step towards becoming the 6th state in the nation to pass the Unborn Child Protection from Dismemberment Act when the Louisiana Senate approved the legislation by a 35-2 vote.
Senator Beth Mizell carried HB 1081 on the Senate floor on behalf of the bill’s author, Rep. Mike Johnson. HB 1081 now heads to Governor Edwards’ desk for his signature.
