Michigan State Rep. Josh Schriver has introduced legislation that would classify abortion as a homicide and also change the definitions of every criminal statute involving homicide, assault, and battery to also apply to “an unborn child in the same manner as they would if the victim were an individual who had been born alive.”
“House Bill 4671 is the first legislation in Michigan state history that would establish equal protection of the laws for preborn children,” Foundation to Abolish Abortion President Bradley Pierce said. “This bill would simply make murdering anyone illegal for everyone, in recognition that preborn babies are image-bearers of God and are just as worthy of legal protection as people who have already been born.”
