I rise in support of H.R. 4965, the Partial-Birth Abortion Act of 2002, and I urge my colleagues to vote in favor of this important legislation. Partial-birth abortions are most often performed in the second or third trimester, and I am particularly troubled by the horrifying aspects of late-term abortions, because there is no doubt that the partial-birth abortion procedure inflicts terrible pain upon the baby being killed. H.R. 4965 not only bans this type of atrocious procedure, but imposes fines and a maximum of 2 years imprisonment for any person who administers a partial-birth abortion. This gruesome and brutal procedure should not be permitted.
