Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey recently signed a new law in the state which basically legalizes abortion up to the moment of birth.
The law is so extreme that even some democrats are voicing their concerns and speaking out against the law, if you can believe it.
The law makes it impossible for abortion supporters to claim that the practice is not a form of murder.
Breitbart News reports:
Several Democrat Massachusetts state lawmakers broke with their party and rejected a new law that legalizes killing unborn babies in abortions up until the moment of birth.
Gov. Maura Healey (D) signed the Prioritizing Patient Access to Care Act on August 10 after the bill passed the state House 119-33 in late July. The bill allows unborn babies to be aborted throughout pregnancy and strikes down the state’s 24-week limit, which had exceptions for the life of the mother and a deadly fetal diagnosis. Under the bill, doctors have the discretion to decide whether or not to perform a late-term abortion…
Nine state House Democrats voted against the bill alongside their Republican colleagues. In speaking to Fox News Digital, several of the Democrats who voted against the bill cited legal and ethical concerns and said it does not align with most of their constituents’ beliefs about abortion.
“This new law represents an extremist and dangerous position,” State Rep. Jeffrey Turco of Winthrop told the outlet. “To be clear, it allows abortion anytime, unrestricted, and in many cases, publicly funded until the moment of birth.”…
State Rep. Chris Markey of Dartmouth told the outlet he is “deeply disappointed” by the passage of the bill and said it “creates a very slippery slope.”…
State Rep. Dennis Gallagher, a Democrat representing the 8th Plymouth District, said that while he believes abortion should be between a woman and her doctor, there should be more emphasis on alternatives to abortion late in pregnancy, like adoption, when the mother’s health is not in danger…
State Rep. Alan Silvia, who is a pro-life Democrat from Bristol, told the outlet his colleagues are more preoccupied with protecting endangered wildlife than human beings in the womb.
Massachusetts lawmakers didn’t even need to do this. So why did they? Because Democrats are always trying to outdo each other to show their commitment to the liberal cause.
This was nothing more than virtue signaling.
