SB 2016-010: National Right to Life Act (Passed Senate)

[Blair]

I'm on limited capacity with this bill as I'm using my phone in a hotel lobby in NYC but I have serious concerns about this bill. As many other Senators have said we're a debating chamber, and I think there's a lot that needs to be looked at in this bill.

I hope for this reason that we won't rush towards a vote without the consent of the whole Senate

[Blair]

Out of interest since we're making a very very very big leap in health policy is there actually any proof that we need a 20 week ban is better than the current one?

[Blair]

24-26 is the current range; with some states at 22. 20 is the fetish of many on the right in RL (Scott Walker tried it)

I mean as I've said before people are seeing this through a political viewpoint- rather than through a health point of view. I mean what experience do people have in health policy/women's health policy? I'm writing this on my phone and will offer amendments when I have a laptop but this is a social health issue- not a conservative debating club

[Blair]

Aye

[Blair]

Nay
