This article is from the February 27th edition of a local newspaper called "The Metro."
~
"Restrictions on abortion that would be the most severe since the US Supreme Court legalized the practice 33 years ago are likely to turn South Dakota into an expensive legal battleground should they become law.
Legislation on Republican Gov. Mike Rounds' desk would ban abortion in virtually all cases, punishing doctors who perform one with a $5,000 US fine and 5 years in prison, and directly challenging what is currently the law of the land.
The measure would ban abortion if a woman was pregnant as the result of rape or incest, or if giving birth would damage the health of the mother. It would allow an abortion to save a woman's life.
Rounds indicated he would sign the proposal into law after scrutinizing it."
