Nebraska GOP governor says he will call a special session to pass total abortion ban if Roe is overturned
CNN
Republican Gov. Pete Ricketts of Nebraska said Sunday that he will call a special session of his state's legislature to pass a total ban on abortion if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade this term.
"Nebraska is a pro-life state. I believe life begins at conception," Ricketts told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union." "If Roe v. Wade, which is a horrible constitutional decision, gets overturned by the Supreme Court, which we're hopeful of, here in Nebraska, we're going to take further steps to protect those unborn babies."
"Including in the case of rape or incest?" Bash asked. To which the governor replied: "They're still babies, too. Yes."
