SB1164 prohibits a physician from performing an abortion, except in a “medical emergency,” after 15 weeks of pregnancy.
The House passed SB1164 on March 24, 2022, by a vote of 31 to 26. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because states should act to ban abortion and secure the right to life for all persons. The right to life is the most fundamental God-given and unalienable right asserted in the Declaration of Independence, and is guaranteed by the 5th and 14th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
