Breaking: Alabama lawmakers have voted to pass the most stringent abortion restriction in the country. The bill now heads to the governor's desk
"Our bill says that baby in the womb is a person," said Republican Rep. Terri Collins, the bill's sponsor.
"The governor intends to withhold comment until it makes its way to her desk for signature," Deputy Press Secretary Lori Jhons wrote in an email before Tuesday night's vote. The Alabama bill, which was approved by the House of Representatives 74-3 two weeks ago, goes further by seeking to outlaw abortion outright.
