Urges US Congress to pass "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.

This resolution urges the United States Congress to pass the "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act." The act aims to impose criminal penalties on individuals who fail to provide medical care to infants born alive during abortion procedures or who intentionally harm these infants. The resolution highlights the need for stronger protections for these infants, as some abortion providers do not provide them with the same medical care as other premature infants.
