COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) - The Fetal Heartbeat Bill banning abortions in South Carolina after six to eight weeks cleared a key hurdle Wednesday and could be passed out of the Senate as early as Thursday.
“We’ve got a way to go, but we’ve never been this close,” Gov. Henry McMaster said Wednesday, standing by Republican leaders and activists who support the bill. “My request, my urging, is don’t stop now.”
