Oklahoma now becomes the first state in the nation to effectively end availability of the procedure.
Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt speaks after signing into law a bill making it a felony to perform an abortion, punishable by up to 10 years in prison, on April 12, 2022, in Oklahoma City.
Abortion providers across the country have been bracing for the possibility that the U.S. Supreme Court's new conservative majority might further restrict the practice, and that has especially been the case in Oklahoma and Texas. The only exceptions in the Oklahoma law are to save the life of a pregnant woman or if the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest that has been reported to law enforcement.Dani Thayer, left, and Marina Lanae, right, both of Tulsa, Okla., hold pro-choice signs at the state Capitol, Wednesday, April 13, 2022, in Oklahoma City.
Two of Oklahoma's four abortion clinics already stopped providing abortions after the governor signed a six-week ban earlier this month.
