That section describes PBa. That is how they are done, that is what is being outlawed. That is what people want outlawed. If your contention is that this is an outline to help physicians skirt the law by changing the procedure, I disagree. This is only one portion of the law. You have to take the law in its totality. The law fulfills the wishes of its supporters, notwithstanding efforts by some to distort it.

As William Terrell pointed out, the abortion can still be performed if certain parts of the anatomy are not removed before death. This bill does not outlaw PBA. It outlaws the way that PBAs are commonly performed. If the Senate wanted to outlaw PBA, they'd have stated that no abortion could occur if ANY part of a living baby's body was outside the mother's.
