<\/div>

Lawmakers in the Montana House\u00a0Judiciary Committee advanced<\/a> three pro-life protections bills last week, including a bill that would protect preborn children from D&E “dismemberment” abortions, a bill that would ensure medical protections for infants born alive after a botched abortion, and\u00a0a bill that would mandate reporting requirements for chemical abortions.<\/p>\n

House Bill 721<\/a> would prohibit dismemberment abortions (also known as dilation and evacuation, or D&E abortions). This abortion is a brutal procedure in which the child is torn from the womb limb by limb. House Speaker Matt Regier, the bill’s sponsor, called<\/a> the procedure “barbaric.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThis bill is not to stop a woman from obtaining an abortion. The abortion debate is a very important debate and is one that Montanans will have here in the future,\u201d Regier said. \u201cThe choice before you is one about procedure and one procedure only, and that is a dismemberment abortion procedure.\u201d<\/p>\n
