2020 State of the Union address: on Abortion


Donald Trump: Ban the late-term abortion of babies

In 2017, doctors delivered one of the earliest premature babies ever to survive. Born at just 21 weeks and 6 days, Ellie Schneider was born a fighter. Today, Ellie is a strong, healthy 2-year-old girl. 50% of very premature babies delivered at the hospital where Ellie was born now survive. That is why I am asking the Congress to provide an additional $50 million to fund neo-natal research. I am calling upon Congress to pass legislation finally banning the late-term abortion of babies.
