Idaho Governor Signs Fetal Heartbeat Anti-Abortion Bill Into Law
(Worthy News) – Idaho became the latest state to ban abortions after a fetus’ heartbeat is detected, after Republican Governor Brad Little signed a bill into law Tuesday that critics say essentially makes the health procedure illegal.
The bill known as the Fetal Heartbeat Preborn Child Protection Act passed the Republican-controlled Idaho Senate last week 25-7. Under the bill, abortion providers face prison sentences of up to five years and can face lawsuits from their patients who receive the procedure.
“Idaho is a state that values the most innocent of all lives — the lives of babies,” Little said in a statement following the signing. “We should never relent in our efforts to protect the lives of the preborn. Hundreds and hundreds of babies lose their lives every year in Idaho due to abortion, an absolute tragedy.” [ SourceP Courthouse News (Read More…) ]
