STRICTER ABORTION LAWS WILL NOT HAPPEN THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION. AFTER A HEARING THAT LASTED FOUR HOURS YESTERDAY (SUN) MEMBERS OF THE SENATE PUBLIC AFFAIRS COMMITTEE DECIDED TO TABLE A BAN ON LATE TERM ABORTION. THE OTHER BILL WOULD REQUIRE A PARENT TO BE NOTIFIED IF THEIR CHILD IS GOING TO HAVE AN ABORTION.
THE VOTE WAS ALONG PARTY LINES, WITH ALL THE DEMOCRATS VOTING TO KEEP THE BILLS FROM ADVANCING.
