Title: Prohibit Partial-Birth/Late Term Abortion Bill

Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to pass a bill that would prohibit any individual from knowingly performing the procedure known as intact dilation and extraction, in which a fetus/unborn child is partially delivered before it is aborted. The only exception is if the life of the woman is endangered by a physical disorder, illness, or injury.

Highlights:

  • Allows for criminal prosecution of the individual that performs the act.
  • Prohibits prosecution of the woman on whom the abortion was performed.
