You know, tensions are already high in this country over abortion rights, otherwise known

in some parts as women's rights, with the Supreme Court's looming decision on the fate

of Rovey Wade.

But even as Rose still stands, there is a state that's on the cusp of enacting the most

restrictive abortion ban in the entire nation.

Oklahoma's legislature passed House Bill 4327 today, which would ban most abortions

from fertilization.

Fertilization, not from 15 weeks at the Mississippi case that's actually before the Supreme Court

and we're waiting to hear the final decision.

Not from six weeks like Texas that passed that case, or like Oklahoma itself enacted two

weeks ago.

Now, this new law, awaiting Republican Governor Kevin Stitt's signature, would outlaw

abortions from fertilization, meaning when the sperm combines with the egg.

Now, there are exceptions, however, for certain medical emergencies, or if the pregnancy was

a result of rape or incest, but even then, there are tons of questions as to how those

exceptions would work in practice.

For example, would you just have to report a sexual assault to law enforcement, or would

there actually, and eventually have to be an actual prosecution of an assault to terminate

that pregnancy?

And not only would this Oklahoma law ban abortions from fertilization, it would also allow private

citizens to sue abortion providers, or anyone who aids and abets an abortion.
