Pro-life Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) has reintroduced the Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act (H.R. 3442) in the House of Representatives. The bill would require mothers seeking abortion to be notified of the excruciating pain their unborn child (if it has reached the 20th week of development) is likely to suffer during the abortion process. Laws like this highlight the humanity of the unborn and are small but important steps toward fostering a “culture of life” in this country.
Pro-life Sen. Sam Brownback (R-KS) introduced this bill (S. 356) in the Senate in January of this year.
