LINCOLN — Nebraska would join a dozen other states in attempting to ban so-called dismemberment abortions under a bill introduced during opening day of the 2020 legislative session on Wednesday.

State Sen. Suzanne Geist of Lincoln offered Legislative Bill 814 along with 21 co-sponsors. The proposal guarantees controversy in the 60-day session and looks to become a political litmus test during a year when many lawmakers, including Geist, are seeking reelection.

The bill was one of dozens introduced Wednesday.

The measure would ban a method used for second-trimester abortions, those done from week 13 through week 24 of a woman’s pregnancy. The procedure, known medically as dilation and evacuation, includes removal of a fetus in pieces.

Why would a single woman ever vote Republican?

2. I'm going to suggest that if this is what they want...

When there are tumors or other diseased parts in a person's body that the complete organ it is attached to must be removed with it in one piece. Tumor attached to the brain. Defective heart.

6. Politicians are NOT doctors.

This procedure only occurs WHEN NECESSARY.

I am sick to death of political hacks and whores placing themselves above physicians who have the training, education and years of experience in womens' health care.

Meanwhile there is NOT ONE law anywhere that tells men what they can and can't do with their bodies.
