South Carolina Bill Would Ban All Abortions, Call Killing a Baby Murder
LIFENEWS
South Carolina Republican lawmakers have introduced legislation that would provide equal protection to unborn children by applying the state’s homicide laws to abortion from the moment of conception, effectively banning abortions and treating it as murder.
The Prenatal Equal Protection Act, filed in the House of Representatives, would extend existing homicide and wrongful death statutes to cover the killing of an unborn child at any stage of development, imposing criminal penalties on all involved parties, including the pregnant woman.
