Senate Bill 323, introduced by South Carolina Republican Senator Richard Cash, would codify criminal penalties for all parties involved in abortion, including the pregnant mother who willfully takes the life of her pre-born baby.
While S. 323 is a huge step in the right direction, Equal Protection South Carolina does not support the current version and suggested amendments to ensure it established true equal protection of the laws for pre-born babies beginning at fertilization. That being said, criminalizing abortion for all parties involved would close the loophole in South Carolina law keeping abortion legal for women.
