governor kay ivy who has a long anti-abortion record and stood with her state party in 2017 supporting roy moore's campaign for senate even after being accused of preying on multiple underage girls. the bill was passed by the senate last night by these 25 republican senators. and you are not crazy, all of them white, all of them male. 21 of them voted to get rid of an exception that had been put in the bill for victims of rape and incest. the result is state law that could give a doctor who performs an abortion on a woman who is raped more prison time than the rapist himself. the bill is so extreme that even some right wing opponents of abortion are worried it goes too far. for years opponents's legal strategy is to widdle away at the edges by opposing medically unnecessary requirements and restrictions before donald trump took office and nominated two justices to the supreme court. now states like alabama are attacking reproductive rights head on and explicit about the goal. this is by a in the last week, it is important we passe ban and begin a long overdue effort to overturn roe vs. wade. now t
