GUSTAVO VALDES, CORRESPONDENT, CNN: Protection of lives such as that of Mariela Jiménez.
MARIELA JIMÉNEZ, PRO-LIFE ACTIVIST: Well, my mom was six months pregnant and she had a preeclampsia that was killing her and they told her, “look, your daughter is not viable”...
VALDES: That daughter is now an attorney, and she witnessed the ceremony where Brian Kemp signed the bill known as “First Heartbeat”, which prohibits abortion once a doctor can detect a heartbeat in the mother’s womb, something that generally happens some six weeks from the beginning of a pregnancy.
JIMÉNEZ: What people haven’t realized is that this is another life. So you can choose- I can choose for my own life. But can I choose regarding my own children's’ lives? Absolutely not.

FATHER ANTONIO HOYOS, PRO-LIFE ACTIVIST: But are we going to nullify the child, then? Are we going to take the chance of existence away from that fetus?
