Are you in favor or against changing Idaho code terminology from "fetus" to "preborn child?"
In favor
Against
The Republican party is trying to change "conveniently" what ever they can (laws, rules,wording ect) to suit their own political agenda. They do not want federal guidelines unless it's convenient for them and the Trump agenda. They will stop at nothing to gain state control over women's rights!

This bill is designed to eliminate scientific/medical language and insert emotional language. What a step backward!

the politicians be it state or federal need to but out of medical terms they know nothing about. Voters should vote all of them out of office.Government has no business in our bedrooms.

As a retired first responder. I have respect for medical terminology used to accurately describe and identify medical terms that have been accepted for hundreds of years. I see no reason to dumb down the description of a body part, procedure or condition because of the fear a third grade child will

With all that needs to be done in Idaho why do we have to put up with things like this. Fetus means the same thing. Why not fit in with the known medical terms known to the world. Julianne get to work on solving problems not creating them.

It is not a unborn child or a child unless it can live on it's own. Leave the wording alone and do something that matters like homelessness.

I prefer medical professionals to handle things and medical terminology . Not some busy body housewives. Who obviously have nothing better to do then to get in other women's bodies and tell them things that are NONE of their business to begin with

This seems like a ploy by the anti-choicers to validate Idaho's barbaric abortion laws

The current wording makes it easier for the pro abortionists to rationalize that it's okay to get rid of a human baby before birth.
ReplyBecause it is a child, no matter how small it is.
ReplyThe reality is that it IS a pre-born child, use of another term, allows the use of "weasel-words", to obfusticate the situation.
ReplyLife begins at conception.
ReplyPreborn child better describes a human baby than calling the baby a fetus. The word fetus takes the soul out of the human baby conveniently for abortionists to say, "it's just a group of cells."
ReplyIt is accurate and honest in describing the child.
ReplyA pre born baby is a child with a soul
