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 pr ohibits 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. ..........
