Actually the stupid response is enshrining in our civil law abstract philosophical dividing lines like personhood being assigned to embryos. There has to be a legal status of less than personhood. There’s nothing wrong with someone believing life begins at conception, but it is crazy to assign legal personhood from conception.
That means someone who kills a pregnant woman can only be charged with one homicide.
And again, this law, even though it expires, would remove all liability for damage to embryos. There was a $15 million judgment in San Francisco for destruction of embryos; this is not unusual.

No, it doesn’t mean that. But in order to up-charge the murder it is not necessary to give the fetus voting rights or a social security number. The up-charge for murdering a pregnant woman has existed even when abortion was legal. This is the use of legal statuses different than full personhood.
It’s like republicans have cognitive issues. You can’t remember what we did yesterday and you can’t conceive of distinctions that have been in the law for generations.
