The PRO Act 'would put Minnesota in the company of just a handful of countries worldwide, among them China and North Korea.'
ST. PAUL, Minnesota (LifeSiteNews) – The Minnesota House voted Thursday evening to pass legislation establishing an unlimited “right” to abortion-on-demand in the North Star State.
The so-called Protect Reproductive Options (PRO) Act asserts a woman’s “fundamental right” to “continue the pregnancy and give birth, or obtain an abortion, and to make autonomous decisions about how to exercise this fundamental right,” declares that this “right” is contained in the Minnesota Constitution’s “principles of individual liberty, personal privacy, and equality;” and forbids localities from “regulat[ing] an individual’s ability to freely exercise the fundamental rights set forth in this section in a manner that is more restrictive than that set forth in this section.”
Earlier this month, Republicans proposed amendments limiting late-term and partial-birth abortions, but they were rejected by the Minnesota House Health Finance and Policy Committee.
