As an Illinois State Senator, Barack Obama opposed the Illinois Born Alive Infants Protection Act. The legislation defined any infant born alive as a "person” who deserves full legal protection...
...Obama actively opposed the legislation in the Illinois State Senate. In 2001, he voted no in committee, spoke against it on the Senate floor, and voted present on the floor. In 2002, he voted no in committee, spoke against it on the Senate floor, and voted no on the floor. Obama was the sole senator to ever speak against it on the Senate floor.
Gianna Jessen - herself an abortion survivor spoke out against Obama's viciously anti-life ideology in her TV advert. Pro-life blogger Jill Stanek who worked as a nurse, and witnessed this horrific practice commented that the hospital where she worked "was leaving babies who survived induced labor abortions to die in the soiled utility room." Jill personally held one of these infants 45 minutes until he gasped his last breath.
In 2002, Born Alive passed unanimously in the U.S. Senate and by overwhelming voice vote in the House. On August 5, President George W. Bush signed the bill into law.
Despite that, numerous accounts from various parts of the country document abortion survivors are still being medically neglected until the die or outright killed – infanticide. - BornAliveTruth.org
