That you would force a woman to go through this procedure... almost seems mean-spirited.
~FL Gov. Charlie Crist, commenting on a bill that would require women to get an ultrasound before an abortion. The bill passed in the state House on April 30 with a 76-44 vote and in the Senate with a 23-16 vote, as quoted by the Tampa Tribune, May 14
Comments:
Time to tackle some terminology... each of my three pregnancies was terminated when I gave birth. Abortion does not terminate a pregnancy; it terminates the baby. We need to demand that distinction.
Glad this bill passed by a decent margin. Good for FL.
