Abortion care providers and clinics in Oklahoma are attempting to figure out their next steps after the state’s legislature approved a ban on nearly all abortions starting at the moment of fertilisation.
The law, which would be the nation’s strictest abortion ban, now heads to the desk of Governor Kevin Stitt. Like the six-week abortion passed in Texas last year, the Oklahoma bill allows private citizens to sue any person who provides or assists in the provision of an illegal abortion. Mr Stitt is expected to sign the law.
