Eleven states in total have passed laws restricting a woman's access to abortion, with some states approving near-total bans of the procedure altogether.
Nearly a dozen Republican governors have signed legislation in 2019 that seriously restricts a woman's access to abortion. Yet not one of the country's 27 conservative governors even mentioned reproductive health during their state of the state address this year., which examined all 50 state of the state speeches given by governors in 2019, the term"reproductive health" was not uttered once by a Republican. Meanwhile, the term appeared in approximately 21.
Despite their silence on the issue during their annual address, Republican governors have made reproductive health a nationwide debate by signing controversial anti-abortion measures into law. Alabama's law, signed by Governor Kay Ivey, is likely the strictest in the nation as it makes it a felony for doctors to perform abortions even in cases of rape and incest. In a statement, Ivey acknowledged that the law may be"unenforceable" but that she hoped it may provide an opportunity to revisitPro-choice supporters and staff of Planned Parenthood hold a rally outside the Planned Parenthood Reproductive Health Services Center in St.
In response to these laws, several Democratic governors have signed laws protecting abortion rights. On Wednesday, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed a sweeping abortion access protection bill that makes it a"fundamental right to make autonomous decisions about one's own reproductive health."
