CHARLESTON, West Virginia (LifeSiteNews) — The Republican-led West Virginia legislature this week passed a bill banning abortion from the moment of implantation, with narrow exceptions for babies conceived in rape and incest and to save the life of the mother. 

Republican lawmakers say the law is stronger than an earlier draft that left too many loopholes, and will function to shut down most abortions and punish abortionists who violate the law.

State Sen. Patricia Rucker told LifeSite Tuesday she is “much more satisfied with this amended version” of the bill, adding the “law will make abortions in West Virginia rare and limited.”
