Lawrence Jones reports in the Christian Post:
Without debate, the Senate voted 29-16 to defeat House Bill 1572, which would have granted “personhood” status to all human beings “irrespective of age, health, function, physical dependency, or method of reproduction, including their preborn offspring at every stage of their biological development.” . . .
Although the Senate defeated the personhood bill, it passed other pro-life legislation on Friday.
HB1445, which requires abortion facilities to inform the woman that “the abortion will terminate the life of a separate, unique living human being,” passed by a 34-11 vote.
HB1371, which requires the abortion facility to perform an ultrasound and tell the woman that she has a right to view the ultrasound, was passed in the Senate by a 44-1 vote.
