L.B. 626, a Heartbeat Bill, failed by just one vote in Nebraska, and Students for Life Action echoes Governor Pillen’s call for Senators to try again. Senator Merv Reipe must be urged to move reconsideration or go along with any other means the Senate can work out to pass the original Heartbeat bill, not a watered-down version.
In a life and death situation, on the battlefield or in the ER, the one thing medical professionals check for to decide who to treat is a heartbeat. Yet, with such a strong sign of life, pre-born babies in Nebraska face death. A proposed alternative bill that allows unlimited abortion for any reason before 12-weeks leaves 90% of babies unprotected, and is unacceptable. Senators must pass Heartbeat.
Please take less than 30 seconds to fill out our form to contact Senator Riepe today, as the lives of over 2,000 Nebraska babies each year are on the line.
