UPDATE 3\/9\/21<\/strong>: Hawaii House Bill 576, which would allow non-physicians to commit first-trimester surgical abortions has passed<\/a> the House Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs Committee and will advance to the full House. If signed into law, it could increase the number of abortions in the state.<\/p>\n

2\/22\/21<\/strong>: The Hawaii Legislature is now considering a bill that would expand access to abortion in the state by allowing non-physicians to commit first-trimester surgical abortions. The state already allows advanced practice nurses to commit chemical abortions (the abortion pill) but abortion businesses in the state want to be able to commit more abortions, and there seems to be a shortage who are willing to deliberately kill human beings.<\/p>\n

House Bill 576<\/a> would allow advanced nurse practitioners to commit suction aspiration abortions, which use powerful suction to tear the preborn child violently from the uterus up to week 13, as described by former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino in the video below. About a dozen other states already allow non-physicians to commit abortions, according to Honolulu Civil Beat<\/a>. The bill had originally included allowing physician assistants to commit abortions as well.<\/p>\n
