Mississippi Republican Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith scotched the Democrat’s effort to slip through a bill that would have ended religious freedom hidden in a bill to “protect” in vitro fertilization (IVF).
On Friday, Democrat Illinois Sen.
Tammy Duckworth tried to get the upper chamber to give “unanimous consent” to her Access to Family Building Act, a false flag effort to “protect” IVF.
The process of unanimous consent would have automatically passed the bill, but the process also allows a single senator to block it, stopping its automatic passage.
Hyde-Smith chose to block, and for some very specific and important reasons.
Emma Waters of the Heritage Foundation blasted Duckworth’s stealth bill.
“Far from merely protecting IVF, this act would establish a statutory right for any adult to access any assisted reproductive technologies to create a child.
This would allow, for instance, a child abuser to use reproductive technologies to have a child,” Waters wrote.
