Three male Arkansas senators filed a bill Tuesday to create a monument for fetuses aborted during the nearly 50 years of Roe v. Wade.
Four Arkansas lawmakers — three male and one female — filed a bill Tuesday to create a monument to fetuses aborted during the nearly 50 years of Roe v. Wade.
The “Monument for the Unborn” would be erected on State Capitol Grounds in Little Rock and would be dedicated to the “at least” 236,243 elective abortions politicians estimate were performed between 1973 and 2022. The bill refers to the 49-year span as the years “Arkansas was prevented from protecting the life of unborn children.”Three male lawmakers and one female cosigned the bill.
A trust fund would also be created to erect the memorial if the bill passes. Only gifts, grants and donations would be used to finance the project.The “Monument for the Unborn” would be erected on State Capitol grounds in Little Rock.Kim Hammer is the lead signer for the state Senate, and is joined by male co-signers Tyler Dees and John Payton.Neither Hammer nor Bentley immediately responded to The Post’s request for comment.
The state only allows the procedure to save the life of the mother. It does not provide exceptions for those impregnated in an act of rape or incest.
