Is it not true that the bill the gentleman has sponsored would give the abortionist unfettered discretion to determine when an abortion would be performed during the third trimester or post viability? Because the gentleman has an exception in there that says that the abortion can be performed if in the medical judgment of the attending physician, that is the abortionist, the abortionist believes it is necessary. Is that not in the gentleman's bill?

Under the laws of all the States, those individuals that the gentlewoman has specified would be enabled to go with the young woman to a judge for the judicial bypass. That is available under all the laws as required by the Supreme Court.
The gentlewoman is certainly aware that the Supreme Court has required judicial bypass. And if a judicial bypass procedure is not available, the State law is invalid and unenforceable.
No one is excluded from this protections of the amendment any more than people or ideas are excluded by the words ``in God we trust'' here on the wall of this Chamber.
I do not support the gun laws of New York. I think a lot of New Yorkers are moving to Florida so maybe that has something to do with the better legal climate in Florida.
