Capitol Hill Brief — Broad Support

  The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act should not be a left or right issue. Even many pro-choice people support a 20-week ban on abortion.

Capitol Hill Brief — Bad Company

  According to medical experts, a baby’s pain system at 20-weeks’ gestation is fully developed; the baby’s higher-level, pain-modifying systems have barely begun to develop, leaving them to feel excruciating pain.
