And the race is on. South Dakota moves the nation into a heads on battle over the ROE vs WADE issue again. This time with a resounding 23-12 vote. The S.D. Legislature announced "It is the time for the South Dakota Legislature to deal with this issue and protect the lives and rights of unborn children,"... This along with the two Appellant court rulings on "Partial Birth" Abortion today, will definitely set the courts on a head on collision with Abortion Rights groups and the SUPREME COURT. It is now time to see if America is willing to "stand up for the unborn child". This ruling by the SD Legislature bans abortion, except for extreme reasons (saving the life of the mother for instance), could make it criminal for doctors or others to perform this procedure.

S.D. Senate Bill to Ban Most Abortions
By CHET BROKAW Associated Press Writer
PIERRE, S.D. (AP) -- Legislation meant to prompt a national legal battle targeting Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, was approved Wednesday by the South Dakota Senate, moving the bill a step closer to final passage.
The measure, which would ban nearly all abortions in the state, now returns to the House, which passed a different version earlier. The House must decide whether to accept changes made by the Senate.
"It is the time for the South Dakota Legislature to deal with this issue and protect the lives and rights of unborn children," said Democratic Sen. Julie Bartling, the bill's main sponsor.
