Nebraska Implements Controversial Abortion and Transgender Surgery Restrictions.

Nebraska has become the latest state to pass post-Roe abortion restrictions with a 12-week ban, signed into law by Republican Governor Jim Pillen. Exceptions are made for rape, incest, and when the mother's life is in danger. Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last summer, 18 Republican states have passed "trigger laws" outlawing abortion, and eight other Republican-led states have enacted new laws that outlaw abortion at various stages of pregnancy.
