South Carolina House Approves Abortion Ban After 20 Weeks
South Carolina’s Republican House passed a bill that would ban abortion after 20 weeks.
The bill now moves to the Senate, where if approved and then signed by Republican Governor Nikki Haley, South Carolina would become the 13th state to enact the ban, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a nonprofit sexual health research organization.
Similar measures and legislation are also pending in West Virginia and Mississippi.
