House Committee Passes Ultrasound Education Bill

On Thursday the House Education Committee passed a good bill to help teach public school students about unborn children.
S.B. 450 by Sen. Breanne Davis (R — Russellville) and Rep. Kendra Moore (R — Lincoln) lets public school students see a recording of a high-definition ultrasound video as part of human fetal growth and development education courses.
The bill also lets students learn important facts about how unborn children develop in the womb.
S.B. 450 passed with overwhelming support in the Arkansas Senate last week. Now that the education committee has backed it, the bill can go before the entire Arkansas House of Representatives for a final vote.
As we have said time and again, ultrasound images help demonstrate that unborn children are human beings.
Very few medical advancements have done more to change hearts and minds on abortion than ultrasound technology. In fact, research has shown that some women are less likely to have an abortion if they see an ultrasound image of their unborn child.
S.B. 450 will help teach students that unborn children are living human beings. That is why Family Council is pleased to support this good bill.
