Pro-life organizations and the legislators behind (the fetal tissue ban) bill and two other bills held a Rally for Life on the Capitol steps, urging lawmakers to pass all three. The groups are particularly focused on encouraging Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, to schedule a vote, because they believe the Assembly has the votes to pass the legislation. But Vos said Tuesday Republican lawmakers are still working to reach a compromise on the proposal, which is an updated version of a 2013 bill that would ban the “sale, transfer or experimentation” of fetal body parts.
