Pro-Abortion Senator Connie Triplett gets caught lying on the floor of the Senate

Here is a story that appeared yesterday in the Say Anything Blog.  It includes a video of Senator Connie Triplett mindlessly repeating planned parenthood’s pro-abortion talking points.
After some rather derogatory remarks towards the sponsor of the measure, Senator Margaret Sitte, Sen. Triplett is asked to stay on subject.  Thankfully Senator Spencer Berry, a physician, steps in to set the record straight.

Thankfully someone had read the bill (SB 2303)!

Here’s a hat tip to the Say Anything Blog for some great and straight forward coverage.

ND leads the nation in the fight for life

 

North Dakota Senate passes personhood amendment

BY JOHN JALSEVAC

BISMARCK, ND, February 7, 2013, (LifeSiteNews.com) – North Dakota may be on the verge of becoming the first state in the union that protects human beings from the moment of conception after the Senate passed the state’s personhood amendment.

Similar personhood amendments passed the House of Representatives in 2009 and 2011 but died in the Senate. This is the first time the legislation earned the support of the Senate. The bill will now go to the House for a vote.

Jennifer Mason, spokesperson for Personhood USA, told LifeSiteNews.com in a telephone interview that she believes the legislation has a very good chance of passing the House and being signed by the governor.

“We just need the North Dakota House of Representatives to stay strong and vote as they did before,” she said, “and we’ll see this pass for the first time in the United States.”

The amendment, SCR 4009, states, “the inalienable right to life of every human being at any stage of development must be recognized and protected.”

In addition, the Senate has approved SB 2303 which “ensures that the protection that our criminal laws afford to victims of crimes extends to all human beings born and unborn.

“North Dakota is leading the way for equal rights and protections for all human beings,” said Mason.

“After the struggles to pass life-affirming amendments in the Senate in the past four years, we are very pleased that the North Dakota Senate has chosen to protect all living human beings. This is a historic day in North Dakota.”

SCR 4009 and SB 2303 were both written as to ensure that mother and baby are both treated as medical patients, that medical care is not inhibited, and that fertility treatments are not banned.

“Abortion laws are archaic, based on 40-year-old science and technology,” added Mason.

“Our understanding of pregnancy and human development since Roe v Wade has changed dramatically. There is no question now that the unborn child is a human being and a person, who has a right to legal recognition and protection.”

H.B. 1450 The law that will mark the beginning of the END TO ABORTION

Dear North Dakota friends,

Representative Dan Ruby of Minot has introduced H.B. 1450, the Defense of Human Life Act, and there is a very good chance this bill will be the first personhood law to pass in America!  It is endorsed by North Dakota Life League and by North Dakota Right to Life.

We need you to contact the legislators listed below and ask them to support H.B. 1450, the Defense of Human Life Act by voting for it in their Human Services Committee vote.

Here is the link to the wording of HB 1450 otherwise known as The Defense of Human Life Act: http://www.legis.nd.gov/assembly/62-2011/documents/11-0665-01000.pdf

The underlined words are what is being added to the law.  Most of this bill is just re-stating current law to provide context as to what is being changed. 

This bill adds a scientific definition of a human being that includes the preborn; the definition of the term person will be made to include ALL human beings; and the last section addresses the “difficult” cases such as ectopic pregnancy in a principled way. (Section 2 and 3 say the same thing.)

The ND House Human Services committee hearing for Rep. Dan Ruby’s pro-life bill is Monday January 31 at 9am in the Fort Union room.  We will try to hold a press conference in the main hall outside the House and Senate chambers following the committee hearing.  Please come and invite all your friends.
