Here is a less biased story about the bill with two caveats:
1. It is rare for an infant to be born after an attempted abortion, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A total of 143 infants were born after an attempted induced termination from 2003 to 2014, according to the agency, the majority of whom died between one and four hours later. Of those, 97 “involved a maternal complication or, one or more congenital anomalies.
2. That legislation, titled the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act of 2002, said infants must receive the same legal rights as any other individuals. The legislation passed through both chambers and then-President George W. Bush signed it into law.
