Abortion advice bill reintroduced in Senate
"Life begins at conception, and a fetus could feel pain during an abortion.

Indiana would require doctors to deliver that heavily debated statement, in writing, to abortion patients under proposed legislation that re-emerged Thursday at the Statehouse.

A similar bill died in the Senate last year, but its author, Sen. Patricia L. Miller, R-Indianapolis, is pushing it again this session.

The legislation, Senate Bill 146, was debated Thursday in the Senate Judiciary Committee but received no vote.
Representatives from Indiana Right to Life, the Indiana Catholic Conference and the conservative activist group Advance America backed the bill. Planned Parenthood and the Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation spoke against it.

Miller said the bill is necessary to make sure women considering an abortion have all the facts they need to make an informed decision.

"Abortion advice" Nice.

Reminds me of that Everlast song "What it's like" It has that lines that go;

And then she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walkin' through the doors
They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner, and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose
