SUMMARY
This amendment is the majority report of the committee and makes 2 drafting changes. First, it strikes language "until birth" in the definition of "unborn child," as this language is not relevant to the rest of the definition. Second, it strikes redundant language in the crime of aggravated assault on an unborn child.
