Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., introduced House legislation Thursday that would require the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to include abortions into the annual count of child deaths.
The bill, formally known as the Seeking Official Uncounted Lives Statistics Act, or SOULS Act, would obligate federal officials to collect hard numbers involving abortion-related deaths in America.
"An unborn child is a human life, no matter what stage of pregnancy the mother is in. Simply ignoring this massacre of Americans is not only wrong, it's discriminatory. Life begins at conception and the recognition of that life ought to begin at conception, as well," said Cawthorn in a statement.
Cawthorn added: "The current system of ignoring infanticide can no longer be tolerated. I am proud to introduce this common-sense piece of legislation which will reveal the devastating amount of lives lost to abortion in our nation."
The core language of Cawthorn's two-page proposal reads as follows: "In collecting and making available information on death numbers and rates in the United States, the [CDC] shall, to the extent possible, include in such numbers and rates any abortion of a human embryo or fetus."
