Nebraska Governor Wants No Exceptions for Abortion Ban

Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts (R) declared that he wants his state to pass a law banning all abortion with no exceptions for incest or rape, stating that it’s his “intention” to call a special legislative session to take “further steps” to “protect preborn babies,” the Daily Beast reports.

Said Ricketts: “Those are babies, too. If Roe v. Wade, a horrible constitutional decision, gets overturned by the Supreme Court, which we’re hopeful of, here in Nebraska we’ll take further steps to protect those preborn babies.”
