(Worthy News) – Phil Bryant, the Republican governor of Mississippi, signed a bill into law on March 21 that prohibits abortions after a baby’s heartbeat can be detected, which is at approximately six weeks. In a tweet about the legislation, the governor said all people will answer to God one day and he wants to be able to say, “I fought for the lives of innocent babies.”
“We will answer to the good Lord one day,” tweeted Gov. Bryant on March 20. “I will say in this instance, ‘I fought for the lives of innocent babies, even under threat of legal action.”
The pro-abortion Center for Reproductive Rights has stated that it will file a lawsuit against the legislation. [ Source: CNS News (Read More…) ]
