PHOENIX (Reuters) - Arizona's state House of Representatives voted to enact a bill on Tuesday that bans most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, sending the closely watched measure on to the Republican governor for approval.
House members passed the bill by a 37-22 vote. The measure would bar health care professionals from performing abortions after 20 weeks, except in the case of a medical emergency. Only a small number of these abortions are performed in Arizona.
I can think of several reasons why a woman would want to get a 3rd trimester abortion without "medical emergency" being included.
