Vote number 2004-63 criminal penalty for harming unborn fetus during other crime
on Mar 25, 2004 regarding bill S.1019/HR.1997 Unborn Victims of Violence Act
Results: Bill passed, 61-38

Bill would make it a criminal offense to harm or kill a fetus during the commission of a violent crime. The measure would set criminal penalties, the same as those that would apply if harm or death happened to the pregnant woman, for those who harm a fetus. It is not required that the individual have prior knowledge of the pregnancy or intent to harm the fetus. This bill prohibits the death penalty from being imposed for such an offense. The bill states that its provisions should not be interpreted to apply a woman's actions with respect to her pregnancy.
