Evil incarnate!
Nearly every House Democrat on Wednesday voted against legislation that would require immediate medical attention for babies who are born alive after an attempt was made to abort them.

The House passed the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which says any infant born alive after an attempted abortion is a "legal person for all purposes under the laws of the United States." Doctors would be required to care for those infants as a "reasonably diligent and conscientious health care practitioner would render to any other child born alive."

The bill passed 220-210, and all 210 of the "no" votes came from Democrats. Only one Democrat voted for the bill — Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas — and one other Democrat, Rep. Vicente Gonzalez of Texas, voted "present."
 
This wouldn't be an issue if not for the fact that the late term abortion ban ended with the overturn of RvW.
 
This is already the law. It's why Gosnell is spending his time serving out three life sentences.
 

That doesn't dispute anything I've said. We have laws against murder. If someone introduces another bill banning murder and it doesn't pass, the laws against murder are still there.

Undoubtedly there were other reasons for the 'no' vote. The above was likely included in a bill the Democrats could not support for the very reason we see here, propaganda.
