Looks like propaganda

How about putting up how every senator voted, and not just Obama and Clinton? As it stands, people use this page for the shock value of "Obama supports killing babies".

Well, Obama was the only opponent. Notice how it passed unanimously after he left? ✏✎✍✌✉✈✇✆✃✄Ⓠ‽ (talk) 21:55, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Uh hello?? Obama joined the US Senate in 2005, way after the bill was passed. Where's your head?? LeoTrottier (talk) 02:45, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

...It went through the Illinois senate first, with the exact same language. That was the bill Obama voted against. He voted with it in the Federal Senate, when he was no longer in liberal Chicago, and where people would actually go "What the F***?"Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 07:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More balanced citations

For a more balanced view of the law, there need to be citations/external links that are not only from a single pro-life organization's website. 212.179.71.70 (talk) 13:27, 18 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Voting Log

It might be helpful to provide a list of which senators voted for and against the Born-Alive Act. For other Wikipedia precedents, see USA Patriot Act, the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, and the War Powers Act.M. Frederick (talk) 14:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Difference between this and the 2001 version of the bill?

I have been doing some research about the bill, and found a similar version, but much more extensive posed to congress in 2001, what is the difference between the bills? Twhit0812 (talk) 20:28, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent born-alive bills

It seems this page is being used to suggest recent born-alive bills (and Trump's executive order) are strictly redundant virtue signalling. Can someone add an explanation of the differences? (My guess is that the BAIP Act only protects against outright murder, whereas recent bills/EO are requiring giving medical attention to the child.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.190.236.200 (talk) 14:04, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
