"Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin."
James 4:17
Via Erick Erickson:
The Georgia House of Representatives has passed the fetal heartbeat legislation. In the past week, progressives have mounted strident opposition to the legislation, but Republicans held their ground. The measure passed the Georgia House with 92 votes to 78 in opposition.Meanwhile, in Texas, we can't even establish a quorum to pass the joke bill they're using to run interference.
Democrats claim they will use this measure to take back the House next year, but objective polling shows most women are actually in favor of some restrictions on abortion. This measure would begin restricting abortions when the child has his own heartbeat. It would also allow parents to claim children in utero for tax purposes and allow mothers to get deadbeat dads to help cover the costs of pregnancy.
Governor Kemp intends to sign the legislation.
What's really insane: 2018 General Election was closer in Georgia than Texas.
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp:
Greg Abbott:
Even if you use the Cruz/O'Rourke race as your benchmark, Texas Republicans still won bigger.
Which proves that close elections are no reason to go soft on life.
Bottom Line: The midterm election was closer in Georgia than Texas. Yet Georgia moves forward. For that, you can blame Greg Abbott....
