Republican Senators Introduce Bill to
Ensure Dignified Burial of Aborted Babies
< >
A group of Republican senators introduced legislation Friday that would ensure dignified burials for aborted babies.
Republican Sens. Mike Braun (IN), Todd Young (IN), Steve Daines (MT), John Cornyn (TX), Rick Scott (FL), Joni Ernst (IA), Marsha Blackburn (TN), Roger Wicker (MS), Cindy Hyde-Smith (MS), Thom Tillis (NC), Jim Inhofe (OK), and Ted Cruz (TX) introduced a bill that would “enforce guidelines for the dignified handling of aborted fetal remains and penalties for failing to respect the sanctity of human life,” a press release said.
The Dignity for Aborted Children Act (S.2950) would require abortion providers to dispose of the remains of unborn children in the same way as any other human being. Failure to do so could draw a fine and up to five years in prison.
Additionally, the bill would require a consent form that indicates the mother may choose to keep possession of her unborn baby or allow the provider to cremate or bury him or her. Providers who fail to execute the forms and the mother’s wishes could be punished with civil penalties.
The bill comes in the wake of the disturbing discovery of 2,246 aborted fetal remains found at the Illinois home of deceased Indiana abortionist Ulrich Klopfer.
Braun said in a joint statement:
The discovery of thousands of fetal remains in an Indiana abortionist’s home horrified every American who respects the sanctity of life, and highlighted a disturbing trend that Indiana has taken the lead in rectifying. All human remains, regardless of stage of life, deserve to be treated with dignity and respect, and I’m proud to introduce the Dignity for Aborted Children Act to ensure that grotesque collections like Dr. Klopfer’s can’t be allowed to happen ever again.
