As Massachusetts just became the 10th state to remove all statutory limits on abortion — including in the third trimester. The governor signed it in front of dozens of cheering women. So what exactly did they just legalize? And what ACTUALLY happens during an abortion? In this episode of The Brief, host Shabbos Kestenbaum — who notes upfront that he invited abortion providers to appear and none would — sits down with Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America and Students for Life Action, to answer that question directly and without euphemism. Kristan opens with the response that stops the "late term abortion doesn't exist" argument cold: if it doesn't happen, why did Massachusetts feel the need to legalize it? And…
Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey is facing fierce criticism after signing legislation expanding abortion access in the state, including procedures after 24 weeks under specified circumstances.

AI:Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has signed legislation that significantly expands abortion access within the state, including allowing procedures after 24 weeks under specific circumstances.

Governor Maura Healey signed legislation removing Massachusetts' 24-week abortion limit and granting physicians sole discretion over late-term procedures, a move a board-certified OB-GYN says is medically unnecessary and dangerous for women. Dr. Christina Francis, a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist and CEO of the American Association of Pro-Life OBGYNs, told Fox News Digital that when a woman faces a life-threatening pregnancy complication beyond 24 weeks, the answer is delivery, not a multi-day abortion procedure. Francis said she can perform an emergency C-section in under five minutes. A late-term abortion, she said, can take days.

Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey signed legislation eliminating the state's 24-week abortion limit and permitting the procedure through all nine months of pregnancy, a move pro-life advocates say puts America further outside the global mainstream.

Under the new law, doctors alone decide whether to perform an…Open
