In February, the US Senate refused to support a Bill to protect babies who survive an abortion attempt.

The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act would have required abortion clinics to transfer infants who survive abortions to hospital for care. While the Senate voted 56-41 in favour of the measure, regulations meant it needed 60 votes to pass.

Senator Ben Sasse, who introduced the Bill, accused opponents of ‘defending infanticide’. ‘If the Senate says that it’s ok to ignore born-alive babies, what we’re really saying is we are okay with a society where some people count more than other people.’
