Important Takeaways:
- Senate and House Lawmakers Call for Investigation into Deaths of Five Aborted Late-Term Babies in DC
- James Lankford (R-OK) was joined by 17 Republican senators and five Republican House members in sending a letter demanding an investigation into the deaths.
- The Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) says the babies’ bodies reportedly came from the Washington Surgi-Clinic. The pro-life group somehow gained possession of the remains, and they say the bodies show signs of partial-birth abortion, which is illegal in the District of Columbia.
- “Last week, DC Metropolitan Police recovered the remains of five preborn children…[and] Instead of ensuring that the horrific deaths of these children were properly investigated, Metropolitan Police made the assumption that each child died as the result of a legal abortion. It is our understanding that Metropolitan Police made this assumption without conducting any medical evaluations,” the members of Congress said in the letter.
- “We also understand from press reports that the DC medical examiner does not plan to perform autopsies on the children. This is completely unacceptable,” the lawmakers said.

- Marco Rubio Files Resolution to Overturn Biden’s Rule Forcing Americans to Fund Planned Parenthood

Important Takeaways:
- Idaho Legislature Passes Texas-Style Bill to Ban Abortions on Babies With Beating Hearts
- The Idaho House passed the law today, after the state Senate had already given the measure its approval and will now head to the governor for his signature.
- Idaho already has a law in place that will ban abortions once Roe v. Wade is overturned. The state legislature also passed a heartbeat law in 2021 that prohibits abortions once an unborn baby’s heartbeat is detectable, but, because of current court precedent, it is not in effect either.
- Until the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, neither of those abortion bans can be in force. Now, just in case the nation’s highest court doesn’t reverse the infamous decision this summer, Idaho lawmakers want to pass a Texas-style bill to ban abortions once a heartbeat is detected and to have a private enforcement mechanism.
- The Idaho Senate voted 28-6 to approve the bill
- The House voted 51-14 for the measure.

Important Takeaways:
- Abortions Dropped Almost 60% In Texas After New Abortion Law Took Effect, Data Shows
- The Heartbeat Act bans abortions after a heartbeat can be detected, which is generally six weeks into a pregnancy. The legislations has faced a bevy of challenges from pro-choice groups, but the U.S. Supreme Court chose in late January to reject calls to prevent the law from taking effect while it is being litigated.
- Texas Health and Human Services released data showing that 2,197 abortions had taken place in the state during September 2021, the first month after the law took effect. There had been 5,404 abortions in August 2021.
- The Heartbeat Act has proven uniquely resilient to legal challenges because it does not impose consequences on women seeking abortions. Instead, it deputizes citizens to file lawsuits against anyone who aides a woman in obtaining an abortion, whether it be the individual who actually carries out the abortion or support staff at a clinic.

(Reuters) – A United States appeals court has set a Jan. 7 argument date in the Texas abortion case, where the panel will hear the state’s bid to push a legal question about enforcement to the state supreme court.
The challengers of Texas’ near total ban on abortion contend the move will delay a merits ruling in the U.S. district court.
Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court left in place a ban on most abortions in Texas but allowed a legal challenge to proceed, with the fate of the Republican-backed measure that allows private citizens to enforce it still hanging in the balance.
