Mr. Speaker, I have to bring this back to what we are talking about because I have heard so many passionate words from the other side, and the words have nothing to do with the bill that we have in front of us. Like I mentioned before, this bill is about medical care for babies. It says it in the title. The clerk mentioned it. I have mentioned it. It is about medical care for babies. What we are trying to do here today is make sure that babies are treated with dignity and medical care that they will need so that babies aren't left to die in a closet alone and discarded like medical waste. We recognize the humanity of these babies. We ask for them to have medical care. That is what this is about. Don't let the other side gaslight and pretend this is about abortion rights. This is about babies and medical care. I will continue to repeat that.
