North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple (R) “has signed three abortion-limiting bills passed by the North Dakota Legislature, giving the state the most anti-abortion laws of any U.S. state and setting up possible legal challenges over provisions critics say are unconstitutional under Roe v. Wade,” the Fargo Forum reports.
“Dalrymple acknowledged the likelihood of an ensuing court battle and recommended that lawmakers set aside money for litigation.”
