Vote Passed
Granting Legal Rights to a Pregnancy (“Personhood”)
The Retirement, Savings, and Other Tax Relief Act, H.R.88. Final Passage. A bill to amend the tax code which would grant separate legal rights to a pregnancy, laying the legal groundwork to ban abortion outright.
(Some anti-choice lawmakers cast what appear to be pro-choice votes; most observers recognize that those votes were cast for reasons unrelated to reproductive rights.)
This measure negatively impacts reproductive freedom.
