.@RepDanCrenshaw asks @SecBecerra a simple yes or no question: Do you recognize the statute that outlaws partial-birth abortions?
Yet again, Becerra refuses to recognize the law, instead saying he would protect a "woman’s right to choose"
Read the law: law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18…

In a partial-birth abortion the child is delivered into the birth canal up to its shoulders and then killed through vacuuming out its brain and crushing its skull.

Partial-Birth Abortion was developed as a response to the “dreaded complication” of a VIABLE child born alive during an abortion
Partial-Birth Abortion, usually performed in the 20-26 week range (the fifth and sixth months), was designed to ENSURE the living child was killed

In a partial-birth abortion, the legs are grasped and pulled through the cervix, as in a breech delivery. The body can be delivered this way, but the skull will be too large to deliver through the partially dilated cervix.
The abortionist will then introduce an instrument such as scissors into the base of the skull creating an opening. The brain is suctioned out, and the skull crushed with clamps and extracted.
