Legislature passes bill to ban abortions with strict exceptions
Quick Glance: The Republican proposal for a nationwide 15-week abortion ban has revived the abortion debate in the United States.
  • Republicans are planning to try to establish a nationwide abortion prohibition into law, notwithstanding Wade's almost 50-year right to abortion access.

  • "A nationwide abortion ban — that's the contrast between the two parties, plain and simple," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said.

  • Graham's measure has absolutely little chance of passing, but it raises the issue of abortion at a time when other Republicans would rather focus on inflation, border security, and Biden's leadership.

  • Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who is one seat short of a majority, has refused to support Graham's plan.

West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice signs strict abortion ban into law
Quick Glance: The West Virginia governor has signed an almost comprehensive abortion ban into law.
  • West Virginia Governor Jim Justice has signed an anti-abortion bill into law, effectively prohibiting practically all procedures in the state.

  • "I said over and over and over that I stand strongly for life.

  • But I also said we have to have reasonable, reasonable and logical exceptions."

  • But I also stated that reasonable, reasonable, and rational exceptions must be made."

  • In July, a state judge overturned the old ban, allowing legal abortions to restart in the state.

  • However, since the verdict, only Indiana and West Virginia have enacted new state bans.
