Georgia made a compelling argument when the state asked a federal judge not to block the heartbeat bill that's set to take effect Jan. 1. 

Attorneys representing the state argued in court Monday that the bill "advances Georgia's unique and substantial constitutional interest in protecting unborn human lives, in addition to its interests in protecting maternal health, encouraging childbirth, and safe safeguarding the integrity of the medical profession." They went on to defend the law stating that it is indeed "constitutional and justified."

What You Need to Know

If the bill passes, pregnant women would be unable to obtain an abortion once a heartbeat can be detected (generally around 6 weeks).

The law does contain exceptions. A woman would still be allowed to receive an abortion in the case of rape or incest if a police report was previously filed.  Exceptions would also be available for women that have severe medical complications that put their life at risk and unborn babies who are unable to survive after birth.

Abortion on The Rise

The bill originated after Georgia's abortion rate climbed in 2018. There was over 1,000 more abortions performed than the year prior (an approximate 4% increase).

ACLU Suing State of Georgia

The American Civil Liberties Union of Georgia is suing the state over what they consider an anti-abortion law, and they asked Steve C. Jones, a U.S. District judge to stop the bill. They stated "politicians should not be second-guessing women's health care decisions." The ACLU also argued that women are protected by the Roe v Wade Supreme Court ruling to access abortion services until they are 24 weeks pregnant.

The State's Not Going Down Easy

The lawyers representing the state do not agree with the ACLU. They argued that the "defendants deny all allegations in the complaint that killing a living unborn child constitutes 'medical care' or health care.'"

Who's Deadlier? Planned Parenthood or COVID-19

  It's Closer than You Think Contrary to what you might expect, the results are actually much closer than what you would like to believe.  According to the CDC , in 2020 there were 376,098 COVID-19 related deaths in the United States. Planned Parenthood disclosed 345,672 abortion services on to their  latest annual report . That doesn't even include the additional 593,586 emergency contraception kits.  Govenment Funded Deaths Planned Parenthood revealed that government funding was their number one source of revenue on their   2018-2019 annual report . In fact, they received 616.8 million dollars from government health services reimbursements and grants.  Exploiting Women Planned Parenthood takes advantage of women. One would think that an organization with such a name would help women plan their parenthood, but this could not be further from the truth.  Numbers simply don't lie. During the course of an entire year, the organization  reported  only 9,798 prenatal services an

Shocking Developmemt of Artificial Womb to Grow Lamb Fetus

Are Artifical Wombs the Future? Premature babies are born evey day. It's common for them develop several different health complications including death. One of the primary reasons for these problems is that their lungs are undeveloped, and they will not continue to grow once they have been exposed to the outside air. What if we could find a way to continue the development of a fetus to help ensure a healthier human being? Is it even possible? The Lamb Experiment An experiment was conducted at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Eight lamb fetuses were born prematurely and inserted into artifical wombs. Oxygen was administered through a tube like an umbilical cord.  What happened next would shock the world! The lambs started to flourish. They progressed to gain weight, open their eyes, and grow wool coats. Even their organs developed properly. Great Goals The ultimate goal is to help premature babies. Approximately 30,000 infants are born prematu

Why Abortion Clinics Have to Become More Pro-Life Next Week

Unexpected Protect Life Rule The Trump Administration moved forward to enforce a new pro-life policy known as the Protect Life Rule last summer. It's purpose was to allocate federal Title X funding for organizations that help protect the unborn, but not everyone was thrilled. Abortion Groups "Gagged" Pro-abortion groups lobbied against the policy calling it a "gag rule." They went on to appeal the decision. Victory in Court   Three judges from the Ninth Circuit Court made a unanimous decision  to lift the temporary injunction last June, but the court decided to retry the case with all eleven judges.  On Monday, February 24, Courhouse news stated:  " In a 7-4 split, the Ninth Circuit  reject  arguments that the rule forces doctors to violate medical ethics by withholding information from patients or that it violates other federal laws that require doctors inform patients of all medical treatment options."
