By a vote of 79-23, the lawmakers banned abortions as early as six weeks of pregnancy. Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards said in a statement that he "ran for governor as a pro-life candidate," and intended to sign the abortion ban.

While I am not a fan of more laws and regulations, I do think there is a state interest in preserving life, and discouraging promiscuous sexual activity. It's good to see politicians working across party lines for once, and while I think most of these laws are rooted in bigotry rather then common sense, if you are going to have blue states regulating guns, then you should have red states regulating abortion. I think they are a moral equivalence.
