Mississippi Legislature Passed Heartbeat Bill
The bill would make abortion illegal after a heartbeat is detected around six weeks into a pregnancy. The bill would allow abortions for medical emergencies, but reportedly not for cases of rape or incest. Fortunately, both the House and the Senate proposed similar bills ‐ each passing their respective body. HB-528 sponsored by Rep. Robert Foster is almost identical to the Senate bill co-sponsored by Sen. Angela Hill and Sen. Chris Caughman, reports Life News. The Republican Governor, Phil Bryant has stated that he would "sign a bill banning abortion as early as six weeks," according to Clarion Ledger. Tweeting out in January his support for the pro-life movement, Gov. Bryant said "It’s time to pass a Heart Beat Bill in Mississippi and stop this madness about when life begins."
