PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP VIA TWITTER/@realDonaldTrump - AP CLIENTS ONLY
Internet - 26 February 2019
1. SCREENGRAB of tweet (English) reading: "Senate Democrats just voted against legislation to prevent the killing of newborn infant children. The Democrat position on abortion is now so extreme that they don't mind executing babies AFTER birth...."
2. SCREENGRAB of tweet (English) reading: "This will be remembered as one of the most shocking votes in the history of Congress. If there is one thing we should all agree on, it's protecting the lives of innocent babies."
STORYLINE:
President Donald Trump has condemned Senate Democrats for blocking a Republican bill that would have threatened prison for doctors who don't try saving the life of infants born alive during abortions.
Senators voted 53-44 - seven votes short of the 60 needed to end Democratic delaying tactics aimed at derailing the measure.
Trump reacted while en route to Vietnam for his summit with North Korea's Kim Jong Un, tweeting that the vote would be remembered as "one of the most shocking" in the history of Congress.
"The Democrat position on abortion is now so extreme that they don't mind executing babies AFTER birth," the president wrote.
"If there is one thing we should all agree on, it's protecting the lives of innocent babies," he continued.
The measure seemed doomed from the start but offered the Republican Party a chance to appeal to conservative voters.
Opponents, noting the rarity of such births and citing laws already making it a crime to kill newborn babies, said the bill was unnecessary.
They said it was part of a push by abortion opponents to curb access to the procedure and intimidate doctors who perform it, and said late-term abortions generally occur when the infant is considered incapable of surviving after birth.
Only one percent of all abortions occur after 21 weeks of pregnancy, according to the Guttmacher Institute, which supports abortion rights.
Abortions during the final weeks are rarer still.
Doctors' and abortion-rights groups say it is extremely unusual for live infants to be born during attempted late-term abortions, which they say usually occur when the baby is extremely deformed or deemed unable to survive after birth.
In such cases, families sometimes decide they want to induce labor so they can spend time with the infant before it dies.
If an infant is born alive during an abortion, the bill would have required doctors to render "the same degree" of care used for any birth.
The baby would have to be immediately sent to a hospital.
Doctors who violate those requirements and other medical staffers who don't report violations could face fines and up to five years in prison.
Doctors who intentionally kill a child born alive after an abortion would face prosecution under federal murder statutes - potentially a death penalty or life in prison.
Republicans in the Democratic-run House plan to try forcing a vote on a similar measure this spring, employing a seldom-used tactic - a petition requiring signatures from most House members to succeed.
The GOP is expected to fall well short of the 20 Democratic supporters they'd need.
