During a panel discussion on September 20, Stacey Abrams made the absurd claim about abortion when discussing Georgia’s fetal heartbeat-based six-week abortion ban, that “there is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman’s body away from her.” Even Planned Parenthood’s website contradicted her, with one article on their website on the second month of pregnancy explspecificallyaining that during week 5-6; A very basic beating heart and circulatory system develop.”
But that didn’t last for long. After people began noticing that PP contradicted Abram, they scrubbed that line from their website, and changed it to read “A part of the embryo starts to show cardiac activity. It sounds like a heartbeat on an ultrasound, but it's not a fully-formed heart — it's the earliest stage of the heart developing.”
Now, just weeks later, Abrams is denying that we can even know when a pregnancy begins at all!
While dodging a question from Fox News' Shannon Bream on when Stacey would draw the line for abortion as Governor, Abrams critisized the so-called "arbitrary standards of timelines," adding "... the arbitrary standards of timelines ignore the medical reality that it is a fallacy we know exactly when a pregnancy starts, that we know exactly where we are in the system – I mean in the term."
