The Life at Conception Act seeks to implement equal protection for the right to life of each born and preborn human from the moment of fertilization. This Act would effectively criminalize abortion nationwide without exceptions. While the stated intent is to protect life, such a sweeping measure disregards the complexities surrounding reproductive rights and health care decisions. A nationwide abortion ban would endanger the lives of pregnant people by restricting access to essential medical care, including cases of life-threatening complications, severe fetal abnormalities, or pregnancies resulting from rape or incest. This legislation fails to account for the profound physical, emotional, and economic impacts on millions of Americans. For these reasons, I urge you to reject this unconstitutional overreach that undermines fundamental rights and threatens public health. We must safeguard reproductive freedom and allow individuals to make personal decisions according to their circumstances and beliefs.
