As you might imagine, conservatives are not amused:
I saw my oldest move and her heartbeat at 7 weeks. That moment changed everything. They don't want women to see that.

It's true, the deceptive display of head, eyes, mouth, arms, legs, heart etc of a young human is totally misleading. cc @RameshPonnuru https://t.co/fHuCI3fZiI

Not only anti-science, but anti-geography as well. John Kasich is the governor of Ohio, not Indiana:
In which @TheAtlantic attacks fetal heartbeat seen via US as fake science … believes Kasich is Gov of Indiana. https://t.co/UfHwP3GfIj pic.twitter.com/Wz6WNGmL0C

Pro-choicers should be as equally outraged at this as we are, but will they?
This sort of insanity is incredibly damaging to the pro-choice cause https://t.co/E4MIrAklaU

If you push women to choose between smiling in joy at their ultrasounds & keeping abortion legal you'll be surprised how many choose the 1st
