THE EQUAL PROTECTION & EQUAL JUSTICE ACT

The EQUAL PROTECTION & EQUAL JUSTICE ACT is Florida's model abolition bill, written by a Florida abolitionist.

The EPEJ Act provides EQUAL PROTECTION and EQUAL JUSTICE for Florida's preborn population.

EQUAL PROTECTION from the instant of conception - without exceptions.

EQUAL JUSTICE through equal application of Florida's existing homicide laws.

It is that simple. If we truly believe that life begins at conception, we MUST provide equal protection and equal justice from that moment.

The EQUAL PROTECTION & EQUAL JUSTICE Act establishes new legal definitions for "person," "preborn child," "conception," and "abortifacient."The EPEJ Act supersedes the abortion chapter of Florida Statutes (ch 390) in its entirety; and adds in new criminal language confirming that abortion is homicide and that crimes against the preborn will be prosecuted equally as crimes against postborn humans.

The EPEJ Act is a TRUE abolitionist bill:

1) The EPEJ Act criminalizes ALL abortion from conception, without exception. Period. The EPEJ Act absolutely does NOT prevent emergency medical treatment for a miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, or life-threatening condition! It just says you can't intentionally kill the baby. WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO INTENTIONALLY KILL POST-BIRTH HUMANS, AND WE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO INTENTIONALLY KILL PREBORN HUMANS! A human life hangs in the balance.

2) The EPEJ Act criminalizes ALL crimes against the preborn equally as those against the already born. Not a civil suit, not a misdemeanor, not a lesser felony than any other murder, not a slap on the wrist, but equal justice -- the same protection for preborn crime victims that we give to already-born crime victims.

3) The EPEJ Act outlaws the advertisement, purchase, sale or use of abortion drugs to knowingly commit an abortion as a serious felony with prison sentences and/or severe fines.

4) The EPEJ Act prosecutes ALL parties according to their level of involvement, with every party to the crime subject to prosecution. Abortion murder would be treated like ALL OTHER murders, with mitigating or aggravating factors taken into consideration by the prosecuting attorney, judge and jury.

5) The EPEJ Act would nullify every law or court ruling that dares to demand we allow the murder of children. It declares as null, void and of no effect any laws, rulings, court opinions, policies, or treaties that allow for the murder of human beings, or prevents the state of Florida from protecting every human life. This is critical. Florida cannot abolish abortion if we bow down to the US Supreme Court or the federal government. We have a God-given right to life and a God-given duty to protect life. When rulers attempt to subvert that right and/or that duty, we must obey God rather than man. The EPEJ ACT declares that Florida will not back down, and will not even bother to make a court appearance in any tribunal that would attempt to sue the state! The EPEJ Act warns that any federal officials who step foot inside Florida to try to interfere with the Act are subject to arrest for false imprisonment!

6) The EPEJ Act provides severe penalties, including fines and removal from office where possible, for any state officials who refuse or fail to enforce the EQUAL PROTECTION & EQUAL JUSTICE Act.
