South Dakota is Anti-Choice
So the governer of South Dakota just signed into law a bill that basically prevents all abortions.
The new law bans abortion in virtually all cases, punishing doctors who perform one with five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
The measure bans abortion even in cases where a woman is pregnant as a result of rape or incest, or if giving birth would damage the health of the mother. It creates a narrow exemption in cases in which a physician’s effort to save a pregnant woman’s life results in the accidental death or injury of her fetus.
The conservative movement has a lot of momentum and given enough time (in this case, not much) they’ll have Roe v. Wade overturned. This is very scary. This country is about giving rights to the people not taking them away.
Guess it’s time to beef up those contributions to NARAL.
