Or so says the Republican Ohio legislator who wrote the bill on re-implanting an ectopic pregnancy into the womb…something that is not physically feasible nor viable.
An Ohio lawmaker who proposed legislation extending insurance coverage to a procedure considered medically impossible as a way of fighting abortion worked closely on the bill with a conservative lobbyist, according to newly released emails.
State Rep. John Becker, a southwestern Ohio Republican, got help from Barry Sheets, a lobbyist for the Right to Life Action Coalition of Ohio, as he crafted a measure that’s since drawn international scrutiny for its questionable medical grounding, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported Wednesday.
The bill prohibits insurers from covering abortion services, but provides an exception for a procedure “intended to reimplant” an ectopic pregnancy in a woman’s uterus.
Becker told the newspaper he never researched whether re-implanting an ectopic pregnancy into a woman’s uterus was a viable medical procedure before including it in the bill.
“I heard about it over the years,” Becker said. “I never questioned it or gave it a lot of thought.”

How do these people even remember to breathe?
He didn’t give it much thought. What an arrogant self centered ignoramus.
