South Carolina House members plan to debate a new total ban on abortion Tuesday with no exceptions for pregnancies caused by rape or incest even as some Republicans in the GOP-dominated chamber suggested they can’t vote for the bill as written
South Carolina leaders have watched those developments carefully, as well as events several weeks ago in Kansas, where nearly 60% of votersthat would have allowed the state's conservative Legislature to ban abortion. Republican Donald Trump received 56% of the 2020 presidential vote in Kansas. Trump won 55% in South Carolina.
A special House committee then heard public testimony and drafted the total ban bill. It allows abortions if a mother's life is in danger and then lists a number of different medical emergencies that would fit into that exception. It's not just the exceptions making some Republicans pause. The bill includes a statement that “it is undisputed that the life of every human being begins at conception” and some conservatives said they must figure out whether that means child support and tax breaks begin at conception, too.
