Abortion Bill Passes Senate
KENTUCKY....
Monday, the Kentucky Senate, by a 32-4 vote, passed the latest version of a bill that would require women seeking abortions to undergo ultrasounds before allowing the procedure. Under the bill, physicians would be required to explain what the ultrasound depicts, including the presence of organs along with arms and legs and a pregnant woman would not be prevented from averting her eyes from the required ultrasound image.
