South Dakota to ban Abortions

Newsday, February 25 - "S. DAKOTA LAWMAKERS OK ABORTION BAN. The South Dakota Legislature on Friday approved a ban on nearly all abortions, setting up a direct legal assault on the Roe v. Wade decision that legalized the procedure. Gov. Mike Rounds said he was inclined to sign the bill, which would make it a crime for doctors to perform an abortion unless it was necessary to save the woman's life. The measure would make no exception in cases of rape or incest. Many opponents and supporters of abortion rights believe the U.S. Supreme Court is more likely to overturn Roe v. Wade now that Justices John Roberts and Samuel Alito are on the bench. "
