A Pregnant Pause?








Is she serious?? Does she really not understand this bill or is she playing fast and loose  in order to hide her outright opposition? The bill requires signage to be displayed advising that it is against the law for anyone to coerce a woman into having an abortion against her will. I thought they were all about, her body, her right, her choice. Sounds simple doesn't it. Well anything that might slow down the abortion industry is anathema.  Strange bedfellows with the TN Medical Association and the TN Hospital Association who are clearly carrying water for the abortion industry and friends at Planned Parenthood. Shame on them! Informed consent, they know full well informed consent was thrown out in 2000 when Planned Parenthood and the ACLU sued the state of TN! Yes, a woman must sign a consent form to receive the procedure but the abortionist is under no obligation to give her "informed" consent. 
This bill is up again in subcommittee this week. Delays, delays, appears to be their tactic as they certainly don't want to be seen as voting against this.


A Pregnant Pause?
From Roane County Demorcrat article
3-8-10
A bill on the posting of signs in hospitals that declare women cannot be coerced into having an abortion aroused some concern in a House sub last week, reports Josh Nelson. Rep. Susan Lynn’s bill would allow lawsuits for failing to post the signs and for failure to follow special informed consent procedures involving minors.
A Tennessee Hospital Association spokeswoman said the bill could cause difficulties:
“We could be in an emergent situation with a comatose minor but be forced to choose between ignoring the informed consent portion of the bill and treating the minor to save the life,” she said.
