CA Gov. Brown To Sign Bill Legalizing Non-Physician Abortions
2013-09-14
[BREITBART] A bill that would allow non-physicians to perform abortions in the first trimester of pregnancy is awaiting signature by Gov. Jerry Governor Moonbeam Brown
... those who ignore history are bound to repeat it ...
 of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, by Sep. 30. The bill, AB 154, passed both houses of the state legislature with strong support from Planned Parenthood
...has received federal funding since 1970, when President Richard Nixon signed into law the Family Planning Services and Population Research Act. It is sometimes described as the gynecololgical wing of the Democratic party.
 and pro-choice groups. Planned Parenthood stands to benefit most directly from the bill, as non-physician staff at its clinics would be able to obtain abortion licenses.

#10  OS, according to Wikipedia, the Hippocratic oath reads in part:
"I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody if asked for it, nor will I make a suggestion to this effect. Similarly I will not give to a woman an abortive remedy. In purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art."

Maybe they're starting to pay attention to that.

#8  Why non-doctors? because fewer and fewer MDs are willing to end a human life like that.

#6  The easier it is for caliphornians to get abortions, the sooner our problems will be solved. Hopefully this trend encircles the blue US costal states ASAP.

#4  Be assured the MSM will not report any raise in deaths associated with this change than they do with existing reporting of deaths done by physicians practitioners (see Kermit Gosnell). If it doesn't fit the narrative, it can't exist.

#3  A bit ironic given that one argument for legalized abortion was that they would be performed by physicians rather than 'technicians'.

Given the recent trend for states to try and regulate everything from lemonade stands to interior decorators, I'm can't think of any other area where requirements are being loosened. There will be a license fee, of course.
