and (3) Congress, each state, the District of Columbia, and all U.S. territories have the authority to protect all human lives.” So, if a woman is dying from a pregnancy complication (like ectopic pregnancy) and a life saving procedure (in this case, abortion) is denied to her because it will kill the fetus, then this bill is a hypocrisy because it failed to protect the life of the woman.
Of course, someone would probably counter that with a "But what about the fetus?". Well, if a woman dies from a complication related to pregnancy like ectopic, what do you seriously think will happen to the fetus? It will die too!!! So, how the fuck is denying a woman a life saving procedure going to save the fetus when the fetus will STILL die along with the woman.
The damn bill may say "Protect all human lives", but when it comes to a pregnant woman suffering from a pregnancy complication that will kill her if she doesn't get medical attention...you can't do that. You either protect the fetus, which will lead to the death of both woman and fetus or you protect the woman which will lead to the death of the fetus.
Damn, why can't these politicans that are so-called pro-life be more like the ones in Ireland? FSS, at least they support abortion in the case if a woman's life is in danger.
