Oklahoma GOP governor signs one of nation’s strictest abortion bills into law

The bill, ​HB 4327, is among the nation’s strictest on abortion and is a clear rebuke of the protections granted in the landmark 1973 case Roe v. Wade. Abortion rights advocates have vowed to mount a legal challenge to the law. The law prohibits abortions at any stage of pregnancy, with exceptions for medical emergencies or if the pregnancy was a result of rape, sexual assault or incest and reported to law enforcement.
