The attack on the legacy of Roe v. Wade continues. On Tuesday, March 9, Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed a bill into law that bans nearly all forms of abortions within the state.
Andrew DeMillo of the Associated Press has reported that the Republican governor “had expressed reservations about the bill, which only allows the procedure to save the life of the mother and does not provide exceptions for those impregnated in an act of rape or incest.”
Even with those reservations, he went ahead and signed it, saying he ultimately agreed to support it because of the “overwhelming legislative support and my sincere and long-held pro-life convictions.”
