Oklahoma lawmakers send 6-week abortion ban to governor's desk
Fox News
The Oklahoma House passed the Oklahoma Heartbeat Act 68-12 on Thursday, which will ban all abortions after the sixth week of pregnancy.
The bill is modeled after a law passed in Texas last year that bans abortions once cardiac activity can be detected in the fetus, which is around six weeks, and allows private citizens to sue anyone who "aids and abets" an abortion.
The U.S. 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dismissed challenges to Texas's law this week and the U.S. Supreme Court has so far declined to intervene.
