The Heartbeat Bill is an ambitious legislative proposal in Ohio that would prohibit abortion once the heartbeat of the unborn child is detectable.
Contrast with Personhood Amendment
Some pro-lifers, including James Bopp have compared the Heartbeat Bill to the Personhood Amendment. But there is no similarity, and the Heartbeat Bill has none of the flaws associated with the Personhood Amendment.
- the Heartbeat Bill is legislation, not an initiative, thus is free of the election mischief that the Personhood Amendment causes
- the Heartbeat Bill is supported by genuine and effective pro-lifers, including Janet Porter, Jack Willkie and Michele Bachmann
- the Heartbeat Bill is clear and not susceptible to misinterpretations by courts
