  Thirdly; this entire idea was created from taking a quote from a Virginia governor candidate wildly out of context.
  They characterized it as "he said that kids that survive an abortion should be thrown in the trash."
  What he actually said was "If a child is born with a terminal and incurable illness, and it will quickly die, then the doctor should respect the parents' wishes about whether or not to put the kid through life-saving procedures which cannot save its life and will only prolong its suffering.  The government shouldn't force itself into that terrible situation."
context: First of all, premature infants alive after an abortion is not a thing.
  Secondly:
  
  The bill wouldn't impose any penalties on the mother of an infant who was born after the procedure fails.
  
  False reassurance. They don't need to put it in this bill. They already have laws or will pass laws to punish the mother.
