Republicans in North Carolina’s legislature used their supermajority to reapprove a 12-week abortion ban, overruling the Democratic governor’s attempt to stop the bill. The vote, taken in both chambers in back-to-back sessions, means a major change for abortion access in North Carolina, where abortion is currently legal up to 20 weeks. The new law is set to take effect July 1. #abortion #abortionacess #nc #northcarolina
