Oklahoma passes bill making performing abortions a felony

[FuzzyLumpkins]

The Oklahoma Senate on Thursday passed a bill that would make it a felony to perform an abortion in the state, and if signed by Gov. Mary Fallin (R) would put it at odds with federal law.

Senate Bill 1552, sponsored by Republican state Sen. Nathan Dahm, passed with a 33-12 vote and no debate. The latest version of the bill cleared the House in late April, and it would automatically become law within five days if Fallin does not sign or does not veto.

The state is in financial trouble, but legislators think that wasting $$$ on a law that is gonna be turned over by the SCOTUS is a good idea...

Typical ideological BS...

Gov. Fallin, who never saw an anti-abortion statute she didn't like, did the reasonable thing and vetoed it. It wouldn't have survived judicial scrutiny.
