U.S. Senators introduce resolution for Congress to investigate late-term abortions, infanticide

In light of the murder trial of abortion Kermit Gosnell, U.S. Senator Mike Lee and some of his colleagues have introduced a resolution which calls for Congress to investigate the late-term abortion policy in the United States and the actions abortion clinics take if children are born alive. 
   

Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) introduced a resolution Monday that calls on the Senate to review abortion policies in wake of the trial for Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortion provider charged with first-degree murder for killing four babies and third-degree murder for killing one woman, in addition to other charges.

"Congress has the responsibility to investigate and conduct hearings on abortions performed near, at or after viability in the United States, public policies regarding such, and evaluate the extent to which such abortions involve violations of the natural right to life of infants who are born alive or are capable of being born alive, and therefore are entitled to equal protection under the law," the resolution states.....

The resolution states that lawmakers "should gather information about and correct abusive, unsanitary and illegal abortion practices and the interstate referral of women and girls to facilities engaged in dangerous or illegal second- and third-trimester procedures."
