Terrifyingly, many who spoke at the hearing also testified that they believed SB 323 still wasn’t strict enough. John Rice-Cameron, a known anti-abortion activist, said that while the “bill would be the strongest anti abortion law in America if passed,” he still believes there are two amendments to be added.
One, he says, is that the bill should legally classify abortion as murder and provide equal protection to fetuses: the ultimate goal of the fetal personhood movement. The other, to redefine how the state talks about IVF because, as he says, “the current language leaves children conceived in IVF unprotected.”
