LB 632 provides for the individual disposal of an aborted fetus by cremation or interment by burial or, if not possible, as directed by the Board of Health.

Why Does NASW-NE Oppose LB 632?

In Nebraska, fetal tissue is already disposed of using safe and responsible procedures that comply with health regulations. The patients make their decision, and medical staff follow their wishes. All that LB 632 does is reinforce the idea that the Nebraska State government will continue to insert itself into women’s healthcare.
