I strongly support both HB531 and HB542. These bills are about accountability and compassion, guaranteed informed consent, and simply doing what is right for a living infant, affirming the inherent dignity and worth of every human life. It is nearly incomprehensible that a civilized society would act otherwise. Please vote in favor of this critical legislation.

I would like to ask your support for HB 531 and HB 542. Life is precious and should be protect from conception onward if possible. There are options besides abortion. Many couples are looking to have children but are not able to have children. The Commonwealth should look for ways to support prenatal care. Regarding the Safe Haven program, very little has been done to advertise or promoted this program by the Commonwealth. I would suggest adding funding to make sure all health care providers and interested parties are made aware.

I encourage passage of each of the above bills. These are all improvements for the residents of our state ,in safety , legal protection and personal freedom and responsibility.

Women should be given informed consent about newborn safety devices, like Safe Haven Baby Boxes, that are available near them before receiving an abortion. Pro-choice and pro-life people agree that women should be given the chance to keep their baby, and they should be provided with all the options before undergoing an irreversible procedure. Abortion ends the life of a human zygote, embryo, or fetus, and that cannot be undone. Before an abortion happens, healthcare providers should be required to inform women that there is help available that can enable them to continue their pregnancy and preserve the life of that human child. Please vote yes on this bill.
