Arkansas near-total abortion ban certain to face legal showdown

By IVAN PEREIRA, ABC News (LITTLE ROCK, Ark.) Arkansas latest move to restrict abortion access for its residents will likely head to court as proponents and opponents of a new law debate over the future of reproductive rights in the state. Both sides of the issue contend that the legal battle could have larger implications for the rest of the country. Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed SB 6, which passed in the state legislature and prohibits abortion in all cases except to save the life of the mother. Cases involving rapes and incest are not considered exceptions under the law, a move that Hutchinson said in a statement he did not agree with.
