Arkansas Legislature Sends Bill To Ban Nearly All Abortions To Governor’s Desk

The Arkansas legislature has given final approval to a bill that would completely ban abortions except to save a mother’s life, though it remains to be seen whether Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson will sign it into law.

The state House voted 75-18 to pass the bill Wednesday, the Associated Press reports, a month after its passage in the state Senate. The state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) called the bill “plainly unconstitutional” and warned that “we will be seeing the state of Arkansas in court again” if it’s signed into law.

Broad abortion bans, which conflict with the Supreme Court’s “fetal viability” threshold, are generally not enacted with the expectation that they will take effect in the near term. Instead, they are enacted in hopes of provoking a legal battle that would hopefully reach the U.S. Supreme Court and instigate a review of Roe v. Wade, thereby potentially overturning decades of pro-abortion legal precedent and freeing the states to set their own abortion laws. 

“It’s time for [Roe] to be overturned in the Supreme Court,” declared Republican state Rep. Mary Bentley, one of the bill’s sponsors.

Such a case would present the biggest test yet of former President Donald Trump’s three appointees to the Supreme Court, and whether they will help comprise the majority needed to finally overturn Roe. But it’s currently unclear if Hutchinson will give it that chance.

Hutchinson has signed various pro-life measures into law in the past, including bans on late-term and Down syndrome abortion and a trigger law that would ban most abortions once Roe is overturned. But his comments about this latest ban have been noncommittal.

“It’s pro-life legislation and I support pro-life legislation,” Hutchinson has said, while promising he would make a final decision in the days to come. He has reportedly expressed reservations about the lack of a rape or incest exception, but even if he doesn’t give the measure his signature, it will still become law five days after he receives it as long as he declines to veto.

An Emboldened Iran: What Is Driving The Regime’s Confidence And What Happens Next?

As we look at news developments in the Middle East, it seems that neither side is budging, and nobody knows for sure what is coming next. The regime in Iran is entirely indifferent to its country's economy and people. They would rather see a total implosion of their nation than wave the white flag of defeat. This mentality stems from the regime's eschatological position of Shiite Islam. They believe that their “Mahdi” will come at a time when the world is in utter chaos—and they revel in the idea that they can help usher in that chaos. How do you negotiate with people who hold to such a warped ideology?

While Unrestrained Enmity Remains The Ideological Engine Of Australia, ‘Social Cohesion’ Is A Mirage

Although it remains a confusing and somewhat vague idea, across the Australian political spectrum we have recently seen the rise of a newly favored phrase: “social cohesion.” Because Australian politicians are now using it with such regularity, it is helpful to understand what it means to the ruling class, how they propose to achieve it, and how it is measured.

A Society That Does Not Value Human Life Is On A Slippery Slope Toward Destruction

The Founding Fathers dreamed of a place where all people could live in true freedom. This could be possible only in a country built upon Biblical values. Billy Graham once said, “America has probably been the most successful experiment in history. The American Dream was a glorious attempt. It was built on a religious foundation. Its earliest concepts came from Holy Scripture.”
