I recently wrote about NH Rep. Mike Bordes of Laconia and his vote for HB224, which would remove all penalties from the Fetal Life Protection Act, which would make it risk-free for doctors to perform abortions on babies past 24 weeks gestation.

Bordes is also the prime sponsor of a bill to ban the declawing of cats. His social media is filled with impassioned posts about the harms of declawing cats. Responding to a tweet by Union Leader reporter Kevin Landrigan about HB224, Bordes tweeted:
Misinformation! HB 224 did NOT return abortion to on demand at any time, rather it eliminated the penalties. It absolutely does not mean abortions can be provided after 24 weeks. The FLPA is in the same Chapter of the law as the board of medicine disciplinary proceedings section.
His defense is total fiction.
I was in the public hearing for HB224 when the prime sponsor, Rep. Dan Wolf admitted that there wouldn’t be a single penalty left in the law for performing an abortion in the last three months of pregnancy if HB224 is passed. There would be no black mark on the doctor’s license, no disciplinary hearings, nothing.
Bordes ignored the admonitions from the NHGOP House leadership to vote against HB224, the pleas from his constituents to defend life, and his own party’s pro-life platform.
Bordes continues to tweet about the horrors of declawing cats but makes no mention of the horrors of ripping babies limb from limb a few weeks from their due date.
Contact your state senator and ask him or her to oppose HB224. Sign-in in opposition to HB224 and consider coming to testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee in opposition to the bill on Thursday, April 6 at 1 pm.
Get more information about the bill and how to oppose it at Leaven for the Loaf.
