North Carolina Republicans back measure banning abortion after 1st trimester
Fox News
The GOP-dominated legislature in North Carolina is backing a measure that would restrict abortions to only pregnant women in their first trimester.
North Carolina law currently bans nearly all abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. The measure would reduce that to 12 weeks, with new exceptions in cases of rape, incest or fetal abnormality. An existing exception for when the life of the pregnant woman is in danger would remain.
