We commend Oklahoma legislators for their stand to protect the sanctity of human life. Every precious unborn child has the right to life. We must continue to pass legislation to make the womb a safe place once again
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK -- Oklahoma legislators are standing for the sanctity of human life by voting in favor of three pro-life bills yesterday and sending them to Governor Kevin Stitt’s desk for his expected approval.
Oklahoma Senate voted 37-10 for House Bill 2441, known as the “Heartbeat Bill,” which prohibits an abortion if the unborn baby’s heartbeat is detected, typically about six weeks of pregnancy. Sponsored by state Sen. Julie Daniels, R-Bartlesville, the bill states that abortionists who violate the law could be charged with homicide and lose their license. Exceptions would be allowed if the mother’s life is at risk or a doctor certifies in writing that her pregnancy is “medically futile.”
