Unborn Victims of Violence Act

Here we go again. The House is expected to vote on this on February 26th. Is this giving due weight to the murder of an expecting mom or a backdoor into overturning Roe v. Wade? Evidently the bill, “explicitly provides that it does not apply to any abortion to which a woman has consented, to any act of the mother herself (legal or illegal), or to any form of medical treatment.” (text of bill on house.gov website) Is it a slippery slope as other pro-choice groups are contending? I have just have this terrible feeling they’ll do some kind of last minute switcheroo where it isn’t until the bill has been signed that we find out the exception clauses for women and their physicians has been struck.
