Living Infant Fairness and Equality Act

You may have heard that the legislation referred to as the Living Infants Fairness and Equality (LIFE) Act (HB 481) also called the Heartbeat Bill, passed out of the Georgia House on Thursday, March 7.

This version of the Bill includes exceptions for abortions in cases of rape, incest, and disabled pre-born children.

Death by Deception

The unplanned pregnancy is their third child.

Money is already tight so they spend several weeks debating whether or not to have an abortion.

Then disaster strikes.

The husband loses his job.

Unaware of the state’s fetal pain law, they turn to their doctor. What are their options?

Incompatible with Life

It’s their first pregnancy and they can hardly contain their excitement. They don’t know if it’s a boy or girl because they want to be surprised by the precious gift of life God has given them.

Still, their minds race with joyful thoughts of what plans they will have if it’s a boy. Will he look like his father? Will he be tall? Will he be athletic?

Voting to Kill a Few Innocents

During the campaign you heard her proclaim that she did not support exceptions of any kind. She said that she was “proudly 100% pro-life.” She even touted the fact that she was endorsed by the Georgia Right to Life PAC.

You believed it, so you voted for her and took comfort in the fact that Georgia had another solid pro-life legislator.

Whose Life is More Valuable?

Your sister is pregnant. You’re devastated to learn her doctor says complications from the pregnancy are threatening both her and her baby's life.

The doctor claims the common practice - which he recommends - is to abort the baby.

Her heart is broken. Having tried for years to become pregnant, she’s now told she must end her pre-born child’s life in order to save her own.

Killed for Their Fathers’ Crimes

A man is on trial for raping a young girl he lured into his car. She’s a high school teenager with ambitious plans to attend college. 

The situation is made worse when it’s discovered she’s pregnant before the man’s trial begins.

Imagine Aborting Only Black Babies

How should you react to a law that prohibits abortion, except for minority children?

What would you do? Protest? Work to repeal it? Call for the impeachment of those who voted for it?

A better solution would be to ensure that such a law is never adopted in the first place.

Can You Tell Fact From Fiction?

Do you know how to tell the difference between good and bad pro-life laws? Can you see through “spin” used to confuse the public? 

That skill is crucial since innocent lives will be at stake when Georgia lawmakers assemble starting on January 14.
