BERGEN COUNTY RIGHT TO LIFE

S.D. Abortion Ban Heads to Governor

In February, legislators from South Dakota approved a bill to ban virtually all abortions in the state. Gov. Rounds said, "I`ve indicated I`m pro-life and I do believe abortion is wrong and that we should do everything we can to save lives. If this bill accomplishes that, then I am inclined to sign the bill into law.“ Kate Looby, state director of Planned Parenthood, stated that her group will sue. Lower courts are expected to follow the Roe v. Wade precedent and overturn the legislation. The key battle will be at the Supreme Court level -- if the high court takes the case.
