In the past year, how many times has there been a live birth after a botched abortion?

Is it a massive, pervasive problem, screaming for legislative action?

So only one person is held a slave in the US last year.

If legislation is passed that helps prevent this your against?

You wonder. Let's say its miniscule.

Why not protect the baby?

This does not come close to touching all those first trimester abortions. It just prevents murder of a baby.

If its thousands or a handful isn't the principle the same?

In 2017, in a single state (Minnesota), there were 10,000 abortions. 3 were born alive after a failed abortion.

That is one state, in one year. 0.03 percent.

Massive problem? Well yeah-- .03 percent is actually pretty darn significant. That is 3 children out of 10,000 and those 3 children deserved the chance for resuscitative efforts. Would you not agree?

These infants are born alive and not provided resuscitation efforts, and in some cases euthanized outright.

So yep, I would say that a law aimed to compel a PHYSICIAN to provide care for a living infant is not irrelevant.

I will even quote you numbers from a leftist source, so you don't freak out about some right-wing news site
