Montana residents voted no on the "Born-Alive Infant Protection Act," which would have required medical attention for infants born alive after an abortion.
The measure failed by around 20,000 votes, with 52.6% voting against it and 47.4% in favor of its passage at the time The Associated Press called the race. Aubrie Spady is a Freelance Production Assistant for Fox News Digital.
"A health care provider performing an abortion shall take all medically appropriate and reasonable steps to preserve the life and health of a born-alive infant who is viable. If an abortion performed in a hospital results in a live birth of a viable infant, the health care provider shall provide immediate medical care to the infant," the ballot measure stated.
