MAHA – Make America Healthy Again is a great goal, but look what has to be cleaned up! How bad is the water when a US congressman has to introduce a bill to keep aborted fetal remains out of public water systems!

In a move that is stirring both fierce support and controversy, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) has introduced legislation aimed at preventing what he calls the “disgusting and abhorrent” disposal of aborted fetal remains into America’s public water systems. The Respectful Treatment of Unborn Remains Act, if passed, would criminalize this disposal practice nationwide, making it punishable by fines and up to five years in prison.

The bill comes on the heels of a report from Liberty Counsel Action, a conservative advocacy group, alleging that the abortion industry has been systematically releasing fetal remains, along with the byproducts of chemical abortion pills, into municipal wastewater. According to their findings, as much as 40 tons of such material may have entered America’s water supply over the years, raising concerns about public health and environmental impact.

“Every life is precious and has value, from the moment of conception until natural death,” Gill said in a statement. “Not only does abortion rob an unborn baby of their life, but abortionists further rob them of a dignified burial by carelessly discarding their remains into public water systems.”

Gill described the practice as both a moral outrage and a serious public health threat, suggesting that fetal tissue and chemical abortion residues could contaminate drinking water and possibly contribute to infertility or emerging diseases.

A little-known oversight problem is now exposing the gruesome fact that many Americans have been unknowingly cannibals by eating their young!

Though the claims sound sensational, they are rooted in an acknowledged regulatory gap. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concedes that conventional wastewater treatment plants “are not designed to remove pharmaceuticals,” nor are they required to remove all traces of organic material.

As the use of chemical abortion pills has become more widespread, concerns have grown about their environmental footprint. Mifepristone and misoprostol, the medications used to induce abortion, are excreted and flushed away, ultimately entering wastewater treatment systems unequipped to filter them fully. The Liberty Counsel Action report warns that no agency systematically monitors the presence of these substances in rivers, lakes, or drinking water.

Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) is expected to introduce a companion bill in the Senate, signaling that Republicans plan to elevate the issue nationally. The proposed legislation would:

• Prohibiting the disposal of fetal remains in any publicly owned water system.
• Require proper burial or cremation in accordance with state and federal guidelines.
• Mandate stricter recordkeeping and reporting from abortion providers about how remains are handled.
• Impose civil fines and criminal penalties for violations.

Supporters argue the measure is common sense. “If the remains of miscarried babies in hospitals are handled with dignity, why should aborted babies be treated like ordinary trash?” said a spokesperson for Liberty Counsel Action.

But abortion rights advocates have criticized the bill as inflammatory and misleading. They note that disposal protocols already vary by state, with some jurisdictions requiring cremation or burial, and argue that there is scant scientific evidence that fetal remains pose a distinct health hazard beyond other medical waste.

But wait! Now that Congress is involved, why call this outrage a crime when expensive committees can be formed, managed by examined boards and reviewed discussion panels?

Amid the debate, some voices are urging deeper study rather than immediate criminalization. The Liberty Counsel Action report recommends that Congress fund research into whether fetal remains and abortion-related pharmaceuticals are accumulating in water supplies and affecting human or animal health.

The report also calls for the EPA to treat mifepristone metabolites like so-called “forever chemicals,” subjecting them to targeted monitoring and removal standards.

While it is unclear whether the Respectful Treatment of Unborn Remains Act will gain traction in a divided Congress, the legislation has already accomplished one goal: bringing public attention to the largely hidden question of how the abortion industry handles fetal remains and what ultimately winds up in America’s water.

Final Word: It appears man is in a state of devolution. Can we please stop eating each other! 🤢
