California Bill Allows Nurses, Others to Perform Abortions
.....
California's liberal Gov. Jerry Brown now has a bill on his desk allowing nurses, certified midwives, and other specially trained clinicians to perform early-term vacuum aspiration and medicine-induced abortions.
AB 154, whose main sponsor is Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California and is supported by numerous pro-choice groups, passed both legislative chambers this past week and is now on Brown's desk, reports Breitbart News.

And in California, Johnston said, “the California Business and Professions Code prohibits abortions being done on animals unless the abortionist is a trained and certified veterinary surgeon. If 154 is made law, a mother dog will have more dignity in the eyes of California law than a vulnerable young mother talked into an abortion by a Planned Parenthood staffer.”

Bill May, of Catholics for the Common Good, said that lawmakers passed the bill even though polls show Californians oppose allowing nurses to perform abortions.
“In a recent poll of California voters, across all demographics—men, women, African-Americans, Asians, Hispanics, Democrats, Republican, Independents—by a 65-29 margin, the idea of allowing nurse practitioners and physician assistants to conduct abortions is rejected,"said May, referring to a April survey by Smith-Johnson Research of Sacramento.
A doctor who identified himself as being pro-choice told Breitbart News called the bill a "disaster" because it "sends us back 100 years to the problems of the complications from back-street abortions."
Critics also say the training for non-physician staff is weak and that doctors' supervision will be minimal, creating a risk of injuring or killing women.
