I am going to summarize the provisions of the bill. The bill is sponsored by Jackson county Representatives Mike Shirkey & Earl Poleski, so a public thanks to them.
There is so much good news in a way, because since abortionists will have to comply, it will weed out most of them from medical practice, and it will help women by bringing the tasks of abortionists under scrutiny, and under regulation.
The provisions are:
1) protect women from coerced abortions;
2) require licensing of abortion centers by the State & require on-site inspections of them. Which in turn will require that abortionists have admitting privileges at a hospital to get state licensing--a standard requirement for any licensed medical doctor.
3)prohibit the dispensing of Rx RU 486 by webcam, w/ no M.D. actually examining the woman before prescribing a deadly drug.
4) require the humane disposal of aborted humans ; no garbage cans permitted;
5) require malpractice insurance for abortionists, which is going to take a huge bite out of the Planned Parenthood sponsorship budget; and the abortionists' pocket.
These two Representatives and or Ms Potts supplied some facts the nation should be aware of.They said that Planned Parenthood receives $500 MILLION from U S taxpayers; and that 93% of the women who cross into the door of Planned Parenthood get an abortion. So do the math. How many abortions are U S taxpayers providing? And thus violating the consciences of righteous people, who acknowledge there's a GOD who wrote in stone HIS commandments of "thou shalt not kill". [Exodus 20:13, KJV].

I am 100% OPPOSED to abortion in all circumstances. And I believe the crisis the U S is in, is precisely because the child sacrifice of abortion has become the driving force of all politics. Even Republican Mitt Romney does not even mention abortion as a problem on his website! He calls himself Christian but does not abide by the words of JESUS who spoke :" Even so, it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." {Matthew 18:14,kjv]. However, it seems that his Christian understanding is closer to the truth of the Holy Bible than Obama's. I do not believe Obama is Christian at all, based upon his deeds in office of forcing on the nation a tolerance of the abomination of homosexuality; laying a plan to depopulate the nation; siphoning off money from Social Security to pay abortionists; political assasinations; arming [aiding, abetting] the enemies of the US w/ semi-automatic weapons who used them to kill U S Border Patrol agents twice; and maybe used them in the Tucson attack.
I urge all states to tighten the noose on abortion. To close the loopholes that have permitted abortionists to practice under the radar from the beginning of time. IF they are to be considered "legal" they must meet all medical standards. I prefer that abortionists NOT be allowed to practice their killing skill anywhere in any nation for any reason. Forcing them to meet medical standards is hopefully a way to bring them into the realm of on site inspections so there can be found a reason to shut down the so-called clinics. I am certain medical inspectors won't have to make an effort to find out-of-compliances and 'failed to meet standards' --that those situations are pervasive in abortion centers. I refuse to call them clinics or abortionists medical doctors.
I think the state issued license of "medical doctor" should be allowed only to those who do NOT kill.
