Scott Walker to Sign Ban on Abortions for Rape, Incest

[n2doc]

Potentially complicating his 2016 bid, the Wisconsin governor has said he will sign a 20-week abortion bill that includes no exemption for rape or incest.


That’s because Republicans in the Wisconsin state legislature have introduced legislation banning abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

The bill is expected to get a vote in the next few weeks, before the state’s biennial budget passes. But unlike a federal bill on the issue, this legislation doesn’t include an exception allowing abortions for victims of rape or incest.

The governor plans to sign the legislation, Laurel Patrick, a spokeswoman for Walker’s office, emailed.

1. We are in a "Race to the Bottom" here in WI

You know, his lackeys in the legislature say anyone can teach-you don't need a degree or anything!

3. the Race to the Bottom has already been "won."

Even Mississippi has licensure requirements for teachers.

5. I know, I guess I'm thinking

once this passes, and is signed, then we will have the definitive "race results".

2. Of course he would sign it

It has the potential to cause harm to the more vulnerable members of society while sounding righteous. This amuses him.

4. Well when you're trying to run to the right of Cruz and Huckabee,

you have to pimp stuff like this. If Cruz and Huck supported a similar measure, then Scotty would add public execution by hanging as the prescribed penalty for the abortion providers...and the women seeking abortions.
