Arizona Lawmaker Wants Women to Watch an Abortion Before Having One

Arizona is on a roll. First, state lawmakers offered up a proposal which would’ve limited women’s access to contraception, now one state lawmaker is proposing that women seeking an abortion be forced to watch an abortion being performed prior to getting the procedure.

State Rep. Terri Proud sent the following reply to one of her constituents in an email asking her opinion on House Bill 2036:

“Personally I’d like to make a law that mandates a woman watch an abortion being performed prior to having a surgical procedure,” said Proud. “If it’s not a life it shouldn’t matter, if it doesn’t harm a woman then she shouldn’t care, and don’t we want more transparency and education in the medical profession anyway? We demand it everywhere else.”

Proud continued, “Until the dead child can tell me that she/he does not feel any pain – I have no intentions of clearing the conscience of the living – I will be voting YES.”
