re: #5 Sergey Romanov

I have a gut feeling they’re objecting because this bill tactically harms them, not on principle.

Not entirely. For Catholic groups this bill really does run counter to church teachings, which have long held that personhood begins with movement (though some have argued first heartbeat). The Catholic Church has never held a fertilized egg to be a person.
