Montana Governor Signs Three Pro-Life Bills

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte
At a public ceremony this week in Helena Montana, Montana Governor Greg Giaforte (R) ratified three important pro-life bills.

1. House Bill 140 requires that pregnant women seeking an abortion be given the opportunity to see an ultrasound and listen to their babies' heartbeats.

2. The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act bans abortion after an unborn baby has reached five months of development.

3. House Bill 171 requires that women give informed consent before they receive the abortion pill. This law requires women to receive the prescription in person, and they must also sign a consent form saying that they understand the health risks involved with the abortion pill regimen.

“There were many who served in this building before us who champion the unborn, people who worked hard to advance the cause of life,” Gianfote said at the signing ceremony. “Unfortunately, their efforts were vetoed. But not today.”
