Maybe you're free to disagree with me on this and explain this to me, but as I read the Minnesota law that you signed into law, the statute that you signed into law, it says that A doctor who presides over an abortion where the baby survives, the doctor is under no obligation to provide life saving care to a baby who survives a botched late term abortion [in Minnesota]. That is, I think, whether it's not pro choice or pro abortion, that is fundamentally barbaric. (51:51–52:13)

CLAIM
