As some KY Republicans see the need for abortion ban exceptions, others hold the line
LEXINGTON HERALD-LEADER
At the Wednesday rally, proponents of White’s bill handed out signs and print-outs explaining “why Kentucky needs HB 523.”
“In Kentucky, when a mother kills her born child, she is rightly charged with murder. But if she kills that same child just weeks earlier in the womb, the law shields her from prosecution. HB 523 seeks to end this double standard by ensuring that all human life — inside and outside the womb — is equally protected under the law,” their fliers said.
