Maura Healy, a radically pro-abortion Democrat, is expected to sign the bill, which would remove virtually all remaining restrictions on late-term abortion in the state. BOSTON (LifeSiteNews) — The Massachusetts Senate has given final approval to legislation eliminating the need for specific medical justifications for abortion past 24 weeks, opening the door to effectively unlimited abortion up to birth once signed by Democrat Gov. Such exceptions, pro-lifers have long warned, give abortionists ample wiggle room to authorize late-term abortions under false pretenses. By passing this bill, Massachusetts lawmakers have decided that an abortionist can crush the skull of any infant, then tear that baby apart, limb by limb.” Abortion defenders have long attempted to downplay late-term abortions as rare bordering on nonexistent, while opposing any attempt to restrict them.
