Pray that this bill will be blocked and that the death of future generations will be thwarted.

Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! (Is 49:15)

Not to be outdone by New York’s recently enacted law to permit abortions at virtually any point in pregnancy as a “fundamental right,” lawmakers in Vermont have introduced an abortion-protection law that may in some ways be even more extreme.

More than 90 members of the state House are cosponsoring legislation to codify a “fundamental right” to “have an abortion,” CBS affiliate WCAX reports. The bill is meant to ensure abortion remains legal in Vermont regardless of a future Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade.

“States are a critical backstop to the further erosion and restriction of reproductive health care,” said Meagan Gallagher of Planned Parenthood-Northern New England. “We must pass the House abortion rights bill and the Senate equal rights constitutional amendment to ensure that reproductive rights are protected in Vermont.”

The pro-abortion proposal has the support of liberal Republican Gov. Phil Scott.

The bill’s language declares that “every individual has the fundamental right to choose or refuse contraception or sterilization,” and that “every individual who becomes pregnant has the fundamental right to choose to carry a pregnancy to term, give birth to a child, or to have an abortion.”

Vermont already lacks a law requiring parental consent if a minor is procuring an abortion. The bill makes no mention of an age restriction on individuals choosing to be sterilized, and its reference to pregnant women as “individuals” rather than females or mothers is likely a nod to transgender ideology and the now-common liberal claim that men can be pregnant.

“No State or local law enforcement shall prosecute any individual for inducing, performing, or attempting to induce or perform the individual’s own abortion,” it says, as well as prohibiting any “public entity” from restricting any sort of benefits or services on the basis of an individual’s decision to have or a medical worker’s decision to commit an abortion. The language suggesting there be no prosecution for do-it-yourself abortions raises questions about whether there would be adequate legal protections against infanticide in Vermont.

For good measure, it also declares that a “fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus shall not have independent rights under Vermont law.” The bill doesn’t include New York’s language stripping preborn babies from state homicide laws, but Vermont already lacked protections for babies killed in attacks on their pregnant mothers….

Pro-abortion activists are also pushing a state constitutional amendment affirming a “right” to abortion, which is currently pending before the state Senate. (Excerpts from Calvin Freiburger on Life Site News)

Let us hope this will be the Democratic/Progressive Waterloo in Vermont. Even most pro-choice people cannot abide the thought of slaughtering a viable baby. It does reveal just how extreme this state’s legislature has become. Thank goodness only two Republicans in the House support it, and I hope their constituents are telling them they will not get reelected.

I pray for Vermont, whose law makers walk hand in hand with the Devil who hates them with a cold malevolence they do not understand. i pray for those living in Vermont and New York, who are inviting the great Destroyer into their very homes. I pray that their eyes would be opened and that they would turn from their evil, that they would know Jesus love and forgiveness. In Jesus name, Amen

Heavenly Father, what have we become as a people? This really saddens me. Lord God, I pray that what happened in NY doesn’t happen here in Vermont. Father God, I pray for Governor Phil Scott and I pray for a Spiritual wake-up call for him. Almighty God, I pray that You would instill in the Governor a radical fear of You and that you would radically change his position on abortion. Lord God, please instill in Governor Scott a stronger fear of You more than the fear of men. I pray that You would open Gov. Scott’s eyes and instill in him compassion for the unborn. Father God, please send revival and a new springtime to Vermont, and not just Vermont, but to all of America. O Lord, please do it! Please do not delay! Please Almighty God, answer! In Jesus Name!

Father God, Forgive us. Your will, Your Glory is the evident contrast to this reprehensible darkness. You are life! In the name of Jesus, the blind must see this evil. May Your compassionate grace lead more and more mothers to choose life, to testify for life. Awaken us.

It is obvious the further we get from God the greater the evil that spills out of the mouth of the defiled, “Everything is pure to those who are themselves pure; but nothing is pure to those who are defiled and unbelieving, for their minds and consciences have been defiled,” Titus 1:15. Father, give strength to your people who are standing on the front lines of this kind of evil. We the followers of Jesus pray that Your will shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Amen!

Dear LORD God Almighty, the blood of millions of innocents cries out for justice. Your children cry out for freedom from this bondage of death that grips our nation. Forgive us, bring a great revival and awakening. Please come quickly, and send angels to protect babies until that Day. Bind this evil to silence and block their paths. In Jesus name we pray, Amen. Maranatha!🙏🏻

Apparently it is to get more money for baby body parts. I was told that aborted babies at full term bring 4 times more money for their body parts than babies at only 20 weeks.

    As I prayed for the children, it occurred to me that another person thought it was his right to kill or perhaps even legal. His name is Hitler and he is guilty of crimes against The Jewish race and I am sure many Germans who hid them or protected them. It was a crime against humanity. May your people rise up quickly. If more had risen up sooner how many Jews could have been saved. God save the children. Abortion is a crime against humanity, it does not matter what evil men want to make it a law. They will answer to almighty God for calling evil good and good evil. May the children be in the secret place of the most high and abide in the shadow of almighty God. I will say unto the Lord he is my refuge. He is my strength and a very present help in times of trouble. Even a Eagle has rights and protections and no one dare kill one of them. People would be appalled. We should be not only appalled but there should be an outcry that so called leaders want to make it legal to kill babies of any age. Their blood will be not only on the hands of those who voted for it but on those who stood by and said nothing. Forgive us oh God.
