204 House Dems vote against bill to give lifesaving treatment to infants who survive abortions
Fox News
The House of Representatives passed a bill on Thursday to mandate doctors perform lifesaving care for babies born alive after abortion attempts.
The bill directs health care practitioners to operate with the "same degree of professional skill, care, and diligence" for a baby born with a heartbeat after an abortion as during a normal birth. Doctors who run afoul of the rule would be fined or given up to five years behind bars. Elizabeth Elkind is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital leading coverage of the House of Representatives.

House GOP leaders lauded the bill, with Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., telling Fox News Digital, "Requiring medical care for babies born alive after a failed abortion isn’t controversial, it’s common sense."
