“It says that unborn babies will have the same rights as all human beings.”

Yes, I read the act. I can find nothing in this act that would protect the life of an unborn at the federal level. This act would leave that to the states. All this does is remove jurisdiction from the federal court system allowing states to permit or ban abortions at their discretion.

Now will you answer my question from post 10 above: “That is the equivalent of saying that one’s rights are a function of the state in which one happens to be. Cross a state line and your rights can change. Do you find that the be the position of a ‘true conservative’?”

The bill grants the same constitutional rights to an unborn baby as any other citizen has.

The citizens of the various states do have different rights and different laws.

Under the Constitution, only treason, piracy and counterfeiting are federal crimes, nothing else.

It IS the conservative position to leave power to the local communities.
