Utah Committee Passes Bill to Allow
Women to See Ultrasound Before Abortion
Salt Lake City, UT (LifeNews.com) -- When ultrasound
first became popular the question was, would abortions be done if women and society had a window to the womb? A Utah state
legislative panels that window open because it passed a bill allowing women a chance to see an ultrasound of their unborn
child before an abortion.
When used in pregnancy centers, ultrasounds
are credited with helping more than 80 percent of women to reconsider a decision to have an abortion.
Legislators hope many women will be convinced
to find positive alternatives by seeing an ultrasound at an abortion center.
HB 200 reworks some of the current informed
consent language currently on the books in Utah and makes it so abortion centers must allow women a chance to see an ultrasound
before the abortion is done.
The bill also requires abortion facilities
to provide a detailed description of the unborn child to the mother considering abortion.
The legislation, sponsored by Republican
state Rep. Carl Wimmer, also requires the state Department of Health to produce both printed and video information about the
ultrasound viewing that abortion businesses must give women 24 hours in advance of the abortion informing them of their rights
to view one.
