So, is a situation the causes a miscariage or the murder of the mother count as as murder of the fetus also? That is the legislation that Congress is considering.

There are fetal homicide statutes in 24 states, including PA. One woman in serving 3-7 years (I'm pretty sure) for causing a woman to miscarry a 11-week baby. They did have to prove that the woman knew that the other woman was pregnant at the time, however.
