The so-called 'heartbeat' bill that passed both houses in Georgia is expected to be signed Tuesday, coming after much uproar that included threats from the film and television industry.
With the governor of Georgia poised to sign a so-called"heartbeat" ban and a state legislator in Alabama hoping her bill making it a felony to perform an abortion makes it to the Supreme Court, the push for restricted abortion access is actively underway.
There's no mystery about the supposed plan in Alabama, as the sponsor of the proposed abortion ban bill is transparent about it. The bill, HB314, would make it a crime to provide an abortion at any gestational state and does not have exemptions for cases of rape or incest. That was intentional, Collins said, to increase its chances of getting to the Supreme CourtIt does, however, have an exception for if there is a serious health risk posed to the woman.
