Fucking ghouls.
IN state Rep. Davisson (R) argues for requiring forced birth of non-viable fetuses.
IN state Rep. Engleman (R) introduces an amendment to eliminate rape and incest exceptions in the new anti-abortion bill. Rep. Fleming (D) asks if that would prevent a 5th grader (10-year-old) rape victim from getting abortion care.

IN state Rep. Davisson (R) argues for requiring forced birth of non-viable fetuses.
Asked what he would tell children of a mother going through pregnancy resulting in stillbirth: "[None] of us are guaranteed tomorrow. We must accept death as a consequence of life."
