Researchers in Britain have found that babies can feel pain even before the 24 week window when abortions are allowed in the UK. This research illustrates the need for the Unborn Child Pain Awareness Act (now stalled in the U.S. House and Senate) which requires women to be informed of the extreme pain their unborn child is likely to experience during an abortion.
