The state’s Republican governor has a week to sign or veto the bill, which would become the nation’s strictest anti-abortion law

A rally against HB314 was held outside of the Alabama State House, in Montgomery, Ala., on May 14, 2019.U.S. abortion-rights activists on Wednesday vowed to challenge an Alabama bill banning abortion in almost all cases, including pregnancies resulting from rape or incest, that is part of an effort to get the Supreme Court to reconsider its 1973 ruling allowing it.

Legislation to restrict abortion rights has been introduced this year in 16 states, four of whose governors have signed bills banning abortion if an embryonic heartbeat can be detected. The state Senate defeated a Democratic amendment that would have allowed legal abortions for women and girls impregnated by rape or incest.

The high court, now with a majority of conservative justices after Republican President Donald Trump appointed two, could possibly overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark decision establishing a woman’s right to an abortion.

I just wanna speak out . If girls that has been raped should have a choice to keep or abort the baby. No one would want to have a rapist baby.i know I wouldn’t but I would also want that baby to have a life but I would adopt it out . That is just my opinion

Why do they celebrate abortions like an unholy sacrament?

I find it strange that people would protest for the right to kill a baby.

killers always justify themselves. no more murder.

Sadly most people are unaware of the racist element of the abortion industry...really research it it’s sad

Good maybe SCOTUS will give citizens the right to decide this issue back to them.

Politicians use religion to control the masses - May as well be in Saudi land!

The pro kill crowd

Finally babies get rights too!

Women Meat Market - GOP

birth rates are to low to allow baby murder

Land of the free? Since WHEN does a WOMAN NOT have the Right 2 make choices 4 HER OWN BODY? I don’t agree with prison time for the women having abortions.i do agree it’s time ppl start taking responsibility for their sexual activity’s before pregnancy happens. ppl that rape ppl should have longer sentences.

CTV National News: Controversial abortion billHollywood heavyweights are weighing in on Georgia's abortion law that bans the procedure once a heartbeat is detected. Joy Malbon reports. Why is it controversial? I honestly have no position on abortion, but it's creepy how hard these fake feminist who are just board women with nothing betting to to, fight so hard to kill the unborn. 'Controversial.' Which in today's society simply means some people like it and some don't. Even more ridiculous though are the arrogant fools who don't even live in the US getting all worked up over it.
