Brad Wilson on Abortion

 

 


Fighting to protect our children, including the unborn

Wilson has been a leading voice in the fight to protect our children, including the unborn. Wilson has fought fervently to defend the right to life, and has passed legislation protecting women's sports, banning puberty blockers, and prohibiting gender-altering surgeries for minors.

Require abortions performed only in hospitals not at clinics

Opinion by Planned Parenthood in opposition: Planned Parenthood Association of Utah filed a new complaint, challenging HB 467, a newly-enacted law that will functionally eliminate access to abortion in the state if allowed to take effect on May 3, 2023--even though abortion is currently legal in Utah up until 18 weeks of pregnancy. Because over 95% of abortions in Utah are provided at licensed clinics rather than at hospitals, this law will ban the vast majority of abortions in the state.

Legislative Outcome: Passed Senate 22-6-1 on Mar/2/23; passed House 56-15-5 on Mar/3/23; Speaker Brad Wilson voted YES; signed by Governor Spencer Cox on Mar/15/23.

Collect information on reason for abortion, race, ethnicity

Legislative Summary: SB60: This bill requires the Department of Health to prepare an annual report for the Health and Human Services Interim Committee, including information on: the number of abortions performed in the state; the reported reason, if any, why the patient sought the abortion; and at what stage of pregnancy the abortions took place; the race and ethnicity of the women on whom the abortions were performed.

Analysis by ACLU-Utah: Some of the information in question includes the reason for seeking an abortion, stage of pregnancy, and the race of the woman seeking an abortion. It seems clear that this bill is a thinly veiled effort to restrict women's reproductive choices down the road.

Legislative Outcome: Passed House 56-17-2 on Mar/12/13; State Rep. Brad Wilson voted YES; Passed Senate 23-4-2 on Mar/12/13; Signed by Governor Gary Herbert on Mar/22/13

Opposed new fees & inspections for abortion clinics

HB171: This bill amends provisions of the Health Care Facility Licensing and Inspection Act in relation to abortion clinics.

ACLU-Utah case to vote NO: H.B. 171 unfairly subjects Utah's three existing women's health clinics which offer abortions to twice a year inspections and higher government fees. Placing unnecessary regulations on physicians and the clinics in which they practice is bad public policy that stifles the doctor-patient relationship.

Legislative Outcome:  Passed House 47-25-3 on Mar/7/11; Passed Senate 22-6-1 on Mar/9/11; State Rep. Brad Wilson voted NO; Signed by Governor Gary Herbert on Mar/22/11
