Indiana has become first state in country after the fall of Rowe vs. Wade to pass broad limits on abortion access after Gov. Eric Holcomb (right) signed into law Friday a bill that is almost a total ban on the procedure.
The Republican-dominated state Senate approved the bill Friday 28-19. in a vote what came just hours after he passed the lower house of Indiana. The bill, which will be included in effect September 15, only allows abortion in cases of rape, incest, fatal fetal anomaly, or when the procedure is necessary to prevent a serious health risk or death.
