(Worthy News) – The Arkansas Senate on Monday approved a measure banning nearly all abortions in the state, despite objections to the ban not including exceptions for rape or incest.
The majority-Republican Senate approved the ban on a 27-7 vote, sending the measure to the majority-GOP House. Arkansas is one of 13 states where outright abortion bans have been proposed this year, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a research group that supports abortion rights.
The bans are being pushed by Republicans, encouraged by former President Donald Trump’s appointments to the U.S. Supreme Court, who say it’s time to test where the high court stands on overturning the 1973 Roe v Wade decision that legalized abortion nationwide.
