<p><a href="http://www.lifenews.com/2013/04/18/polling-data-shows-support-for-fetal-pain-based-abortion-ban/">A recent national poll by The Polling Company</a> found that, after being informed that there is scientific evidence that unborn children are capable of feeling pain at least by 20 weeks, 64% would support a law banning abortion after 20 weeks, unless the mother’s life was in danger.   Only 30% said they would oppose such a law. <a href="http://www.lifenews.com/2013/07/03/women-and-young-adults-more-likely-to-support-20-week-abortion-ban/">Polling from Texas</a> also shows support for the legislation.</p>
<p>The bill relies on the science of fetal pain to establish a Constitutional reason for Congress to ban abortions late in pregnancy. <span class="post-teaser-more">&nbsp;<a href="http://heartsunitedforlife.com/?p=2261" title="Permanent Link: Late Term Abortion &#038; Fetal Pain" rel="bookmark">Read more...</a> <i>(2483 words, estimated 9:56  mins reading time)</i></span></p>
