Massachusetts Passes Radical Bill for Abortions Up to Birth
LifeNews.com | Steven Ertelt | July 31, 2026 | Boston, MA
The Massachusetts Senate on Friday approved a radical bill that allows abortions up until birth even on healthy unborn babies. The legislature sent the measure to Gov. Maura Healey, an abortion advocate who is expected to sign it into law.
The Senate passed the measure this afternoon after Democrats fast tracked the measure to bypass the full committee process so the full body could pass the bill before the legislature adjourns today.
The legislation, House Bill 5595, passed the overwhelmingly Democrat House on July 22 by a vote of 119-33. Under current state law, abortions are allowed up to 24 weeks of pregnancy, although weak exceptions essentially allow it up to birth.
Abortions after that point are permitted only when the mother’s life or health is threatened (which could mean anything), or if the baby is unlikely to survive outside the womb. The new bill shifts the criteria for late-term abortions from that list of specific medical conditions to a more flexible standard based solely on the abortionist approving the abortion.
It would allow abortions to be carried out on babies at any gestational age after 24 weeks for any reason. CLICK HERE to read the entire story.
Five Month Old Baby Survived Abortion,
Then Had Her Organs Harvested
LifeNews.com | Natalie Sandoval | 6-7-26 | Trenton, NJ
A couple says their five-month-old infant was delivered alive at an abortion clinic in New Jersey — then trafficked for fetal organ harvesting. They named the little girl Clementine.
Their allegations are detailed in the Center for Medical Progress’ new documentary, “What Happened to Clementine?” Filmmakers interviewed Tommy Kearns, Clementine’s father, and Clementine’s mother, who has chosen to remain anonymous. (CLICK HERE FOR link to video)
Clementine’s parents are wondering: Where is their child? Kearns told the Daily Caller: “If Clementine’s scalp is growing on the back of a lab rat, then the question is not scientific. It is about our child. How long is her hair? What color is her hair? She is not a tissue sample, she is a person.”
Kearns added that he’s “looking at this as a kidnapping.”
The Cherry Hill clinic is located in New Jersey, where a woman or girl has the legal right to seek an abortion regardless of whether they are in the first, second, or third trimester. The Cherry Hill clinic provides abortions up to 28 weeks, right at the seven-month mark, according to pro-abortion website AbortionFinder. The survival rate for premature infants born at 28 weeks is about 80%. CLICK HERE to read the entire news story.

An Illinois man has been sentenced to seven years in prison after pleading guilty in a case involving the nonconsensual administration of abortion drugs that resulted in the loss of an unborn child.
Emerson Evans, 32, of Normal, Illinois, pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter of an unborn child as part of an agreement with prosecutors.
According to court records, Evans was accused of administering abortion drugs to his pregnant girlfriend without her knowledge or consent, causing a miscarriage.
The case is among a growing number of reported incidents nationwide involving abortion drugs allegedly being used against women without their consent.
As abortion drugs have become increasingly available through online distribution, mail-order services, and other channels, reports of coercion, deception, and criminal misuse have continued to emerge, prompting efforts to document and track such cases. CLICK HERE to read more on this story.
Louisiana Teen Mom, Baby
Survive After Abortion Drugs
Given Without Consent
Zeal.co | By Elizabeth Ervin |6-16-26 | Lousiana
A Louisiana teenager and her baby survived after she was given abortion drugs without her consent and delivered the child at 23 weeks gestation, according to a June 13 statement from the Louisiana Baptist Message.
The organization said the 17-year-old girl from Carencro, Louisiana, was given abortion-inducing drugs by her father without her knowledge or consent.
According to the press release, the baby was born alive weighing approximately one pound and remains hospitalized while receiving intensive medical care.
“Our hearts break for this young mother and her baby,” Erica Inzina, policy director for Louisiana Right to Life, said in the statement.
The life-threatening incident comes amid reports of increasing availability of abortion drugs nationwide. As Zeale News previously reported, pro-life advocates have recently raised concerns that expanded access to abortion pills through telehealth and mail-order prescriptions has increased the risk of women being pressured to take the drugs or receiving them without their knowledge or consent.
Inzina said the incident highlights what she described as a growing concern surrounding abortion drugs and their potential misuse when obtained outside of direct medical supervision.
“When these substances are freely available and deliberately detached from medical oversight, they become tools for abusers, traffickers, and predators seeking to exert control over the vulnerable,” she said.
Inzina emphasized the dignity of every human life, in particular, pre-born children.
