Senate Parental Notification Bill Would Stop Teen Abortions | LifeNews.com: Senator John Boozman, an Arkansas Republican, introduced the Parental Notification and Intervention Act, legislation that he says would arm parents in every state with the right to stop teen abortions. The bill, co-sponsored by five other Republican senators, requires that parents be notified by certified mail at least four days in advance of any abortion to be performed on their minor daughter and gives them power to stop an abortion from being performed.
The four-day waiting period in the bill, S. 1005, is designed to give parents the power to use legal action to block the abortion in court and the legislation makes it so a district court would be required to issue an injunction preventing an abortion on a young girl’s baby “until the issue has been adjudicated and the judgment is final.”
