Georgia legislators recently passed a law that would require a woman seeking an abortion to sign a statement indicating whether she had taken the opportunity to view an image of the fetus. It would also give her the opportunity to hear the fetus's heartbeat before an abortion. The bill's authors plainly intend the law to cut down on abortions. It is a worthwhile bill. It is a testament, however, to how many constraints the Supreme Court has put on pro-life legislators that they have been reduced to meekly asking women to look into the eyes of their unborn children before doing away with them.
