    I would be absolutely fine with allowing for abortion up to the point of hearing a heartbeat if that’s the scientific consensus for the definition of life.

    Unfortunately, heartbeat bills have been demonized to no end because (again) “it’s my way or fuck you!!”

    I am not unsupportive of women’s rights, I am willing to be supportive of the rights of those who may not be able to speak for themselves.

      Heartbeat bills don’t actually cover a heartbeat. They cover electrical signals that are not a heartbeat, but they can be detected much earlier.

      An actual heart beat can be detected around 17 to 20 weeks. Heart beat bills kick in at 6 weeks when there is no heart yet. It’s not even a fetus until 8 weeks. You have to deny all the science to pass these laws.
