Arkansas House Passes Bill to Ban Abortions After 18 Weeks

February 26, 2019

An Arkansas bill that passed the state House on Monday would protect unborn babies from abortion after 18 weeks.

Lawmakers passed the bill overwhelmingly in a 77-13 vote, the AP reports. The bill now moves to the state Senate.

Arkansas House Bill 1439, or the Cherish Act, is sponsored by state Rep. Robin Lundstrum and Sen. Jason Rapert. It would challenge the current U.S. Supreme Court precedent that prohibits states from passing abortion restrictions prior to viability.

Utah is considering a similar bill this winter.

The vote comes just a week after Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed another pro-life bill into law. The Human Life Protection Act (Arkansas Senate Bill 149) will protect unborn babies by banning all abortions once Roe v. Wade is overturned. The legislation is necessary because the infamous abortion case crippled states’ ability to protect unborn babies from abortion. Some hope that the new U.S. Supreme Court justices will overturn the ruling, but even if they do, abortions will remain legal in many states. The Arkansas law will make it one of at least five states that would immediately protect unborn babies once the case is overturned.

The Supreme Court took away the states’ ability to protect unborn babies from abortion under Roe, and instead allowed abortion on demand through all nine months of pregnancy. Roe made the United States one of only seven countries in the world that allows elective abortions after 20 weeks.

THE GOOD NEWS

SALVATION

Salvation is a FREE GIFT from God. SALVATION IS BY FAITH ALONE & FAITH IS BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAYS.

  1. God declares all mankind sinners and we all fall short of Glory of God. Romans 3:23
  2. The payment for our sin is death. Romans 6:23
  3. But God…because he loved you so much sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die in your place, for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead three days later. 1 Cor 15:1-42cor 5:21

All God asks is that you believe by faith alone in 1, 2, & 3. That you’re a sinner, separated from God but God sent his Son to die for your sins, was buried & rose again 3 days later.

‘that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. ‘

Romans 10:9
