Idaho Governor Brad Little has signed a bill into law banning abortion at six weeks of pregancy, before most women know they are pregnant.
The law – the first in the nation to mirror a restrictive Texas law that bans most abortions in the state – also allows family members of what it calls “a preborn child” to pursue legal action against abortion providers, with a reward of at least $20,000 plus legal fees, in lawsuits that can be filed up to four years after an abortion.
