In Liberty Counsel’s defense of Sandra Merritt, the evidence has clearly exposed evidence that some abortionists are birthing children alive to dissect them – while they are still alive
WASHINGTON, D.C. – There was a record number of first-day signatures on a discharge petition filed by House members to bring the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act to the floor for a vote. House members lined up to sign the petition beginning yesterday afternoon. By late evening, 202 members had signed.
U.S. Representative Kat Cammack (R-Fla.), one of the new pro-life freshman women in Congress, Steve Scalise (R-La.), the House Whip, and Representative Ann Wagner (R-Mo.), filed a discharge petition that would force House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to bring the bill to the floor for a vote. A discharge petition allows members of Congress to move legislation from committee to the House floor for a vote when the majority party is refusing to allow a vote on the bill. The petition requires 218 signatures from House members, which means five Democrats would have to join the 213 Republicans currently holding House seats.
