Ignoring anything else the bill would do, focusing just on the 20 week bit:
IIRC the earliest kid to survive (so far) is 21 weeks.
And no, pro-choice does not extend for everybody up until the woman is in bloody labour. Viability cut off (after 5 months) seems like more than enough time. Its not murder to when it's a blob of cells, but at some point it does become murder. Few people would want abortions available the day before the baby is due. If someone is trying to do THAT, you'd not make it your business?
