Barry Moore condemns Democrats' life-killing legislation | 2021-09-24 | 2021 | 2021-09 | Republican | House | AL | Barry Moore | M001212 | barrymoore.house.gov | barrymoore | https://barrymoore.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. — Today, Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) issued the following statement after voting against H.R. 3755, the Abortion on Demand Until Birth Act: “Democrats’ determination to terminate innocent human life is beyond the pale. This life-killing legislation legalizes abortion on demand, opening the floodgates to killing millions of infant lives - all worthy of saving,” said Moore. “Trampling over state laws, this bill overturns nearly every pro-life protection that Alabama has in place, including current safeguards for any baby determined to be viable. At the time of viability testing, babies have a heartbeat, all their major organs, and can even feel pain. Yet under the Abortion on Demand Until Birth Act, none of these protections would stay in place to save unborn Alabamians. As an unapologetic pro-life conservative, I will never stop fighting Democrats’ radical attacks to undermine the sanctity of life.” Background: H.R. 3755 codifies the right to abortion up to the birth of the baby in federal law and prevents states from enforcing current laws that protect the unborn. Specifically, this legislation: ● Legalizes abortions on demand until birth; ● Eliminates nearly all pro-life policies; ● Jeopardizes ultrasound and fetal heartbeat tests, mandatory reflection periods, and parental notification requirements; ● Blocks states’ abilities to enact pain-capable laws at 20-weeks of pregnancy; ● Forces state governments that lose legal fights to uphold pro-life laws to pay litigation costs and “reasonable attorney fees” to the pro-abortion plaintiffs; ● Threatens the jobs of medical professionals who conscientiously oppose abortion, as well as public funding for faith-based facilities. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:17:01Z |
