BOSTON, MA — Governor Maura Healey signed into law House Bill 5595 this morning, legalizing abortion in the state of Massachusetts up until a child enters Kindergarten.

The new statute would allow mothers five years to bond with their baby before deciding if they would like to murder them.

"It's a great day for women's healthcare," said Governor Healey. "The decision to murder your toddler is back where it should be: between the mother and her doctor. No longer will the government force its way into these conversations where it doesn't belong, saying things like, 'Hey, you can't dismember your own four-year-old.' The long, dystopian nightmare where women do not have autonomy over their own bodies — including the autonomy to use their bodies to murder a toddler — is finally over."

Massachusetts had previously restricted abortions after 24 weeks of pregnancy, when a baby typically can survive outside the mother's womb. Though the baby can survive on its own, Democrats felt that mothers still might want to kill their offspring anyway.

"So what if the baby is its own person? Why should that keep you from killing them?" said Governor Healey. "What if the baby turns three and they like have an annoying lisp or something? Should a mother be forced to continue caring for the child against her will? That is why women deserve at least five years to decide if they want to 'off' their kid or not. If they're still undecided, they can hold the kid back a year from starting school. One more year to decide whether to 'pull the trigger,' so to speak."

At publishing time, Democrats had unveiled a new bill to legalize abortion until a child turns 18, called the "Save Women's Healthcare Act."
