THREAD: Born-Alive Abortions DO happen. Planned Parenthood and @TheDemocrats DEFEND this practice. Here's the proof:

@PPACT: "There is no such thing as abortion until or after birth."

#BornAliveAct #ProLife #CPAC2019 #WhatMakesAmericaGreat
Here's just four (of 270+ documented) abortion survivors:

1️⃣ @melissaohden -- survived abortion attempt in 1977 at 31 weeks:
Here's documentation from St. Luke's hospital in Sioux City, Iowa showing Melissa survived an abortion attempt on her life:
Here's another hospital document showing the doctor believed Melissa to be 31 weeks:
2️⃣ @giannajessen -- survived abortion attempt in 1977 when her mother was 7 1/2 months pregnant.

Watch Gianna's testimony:
Here's Gianna's first birth medical record, indicating she was "Born during Saline abortion":
Here's Gianna's birth certificate listing infamous abortionist "Edward C. Allred, M.D.," as the physician who delivered her:
And here's an article from April 1978 describing Gianna's story in a story about the murder trial of abortionist William Waddill, who stood accused of strangling another saline abortion survivor:
3️⃣ @claireculwell -- survived abortion attempt 22 years ago:

4️⃣ Josiah Presley -- survived an abortion attempt in South Korea.

A suction machine 29 times stronger than a household vacuum was used to end his life. He survived the abortion attempt, but with a disfigured arm.

Watch Josiah's full testimony:
Testimony of nurse @JillStanek who blew the whistle on born-alive abortions being committed at Christ Hospital in Oak Lawn, Illinois [part 1]
Testimony of nurse @JillStanek [part 2]:

In Christ Hospital (Oaklawn, IL):
- From 1995 - 2000, 11 - 26 babies born alive during abortion per year
- half the babies lived - each lived 1.5 - 3 hours (one lived almost an 8-hour shift)
2013: When asked what would happen to a baby born alive during an abortion at a Planned Parenthood abortion facility, Planned Parenthood @PPact lobbyist @alisalapolt says this is a decision for the mother and the abortionist:
Jan. 2019: Democratic Virginia State Delegate @KathyKLTran admits her bill permits abortion up until the moment of birth:
Jan. 2019: @GovernorVA Ralph Northam defends infanticide:

[If a child is born alive during an abortion] “the infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
In just 4 states in 2017, at least 27 babies were born alive during an abortion according to official state reporting:
AZ: 10
FL: 11
MN: 3
OK: <5

(Only six states require the reporting of statistics on children marked for abortion who were born alive during abortion)
Holding that rate constant, and using these SELF-REPORTED numbers from abortion facilities, we can estimate:

🚨234 babies were born alive during abortion attempts in 2017 alone🚨
More research on born-alive abortion statistics from @LiveAction: liveaction.org/news/1200-too-…
Here's the list of 44 U.S. Senators who voted AGAINST protecting babies born alive during an abortion this past Monday (Feb. 25):
Pelosi is steadfastly REFUSING to hold a vote on the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act in the House. Here's a compilation of 17 #ProLife U.S. Reps calling on Pelosi to hold a vote:
So @SpeakerPelosi & @PPact, enough with the lies.

Just admit it. You kill more than 320,000 helpless American babies every year.

And you proudly support the barbaric practice of late-term abortion and even infanticide.

The American people deserve to know the truth about you.
