La. bans Partial Birth Abortion

Link

"Under the Louisiana legislation, doctors face fines of between $1,000 and $10,000, and jail terms of between one and 10 years."

I like how "planned parenthood" campaigned against this in legislative chambers and "only a handful of legislators voted against the bill." Its about time someone stood up to these lobbyists. A late term abortion like this fails under planned parenthood. If it was because of an unplanned pregnancy, the woman should have aborted way before this late in the pregnancy.

In addition to this, "the Democratic governor on Monday signed legislation requiring that all women seeking an abortion be notified that fetuses can feel pain by 20 weeks gestation, and doctors who perform the procedure to discuss the availability of painkillers for fetuses."
